Spring Rolls
  1. Let 1 sheet of rice paper sit in water for about 20 seconds until pliable but firm.
  2. Lay the sheet flat on a cutting board or plate.
  3. With 1 inch of space around the perimeter, fill the sheet with the sliced carrot, bell pepper, avocado, tofu, cucumber, herbs, and lettuce.
  4. Fold the lower edge of the sheet over the filling, and roll forward until all filling is enclosed. Fold the ends closed.
  5. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Sauce
  1. Process Phase 2 Moon Seeds in a seed grinder, food processor, or high-speed blender until ground. Set aside 1 scoop (2 tbsp) of grounds for the sauce.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine almond butter, ground Moon Seeds, maple syrup, lime juice, coconut aminos, sesame oil, ginger, salt, and pepper.
  3. If the sauce is too thick for your liking, add 1 tbsp of warm water at a time until desired consistency.
