Papaya Spring Rolls with Tangy Dip are a vibrant and refreshing treat, perfect as a snack or a light side dish. Bursting with tropical flavors, these delightful rolls are just what you need to beat the heat and savor the taste of summer, no matter the season.

These Papaya Spring Rolls are more of a tropical than spring flavor and I have to make more before the summer is over. They are incredibly delicious and you can eat them with tofu or tempeh, stir-fry rice or noodles, and other Asian dishes you love. Just keep in mind they are best eaten fresh, although they are still okay the next day.

However, this is one of those dishes that taste best fresh. They are also great for parties as finger foods. And if you feel really adventurous, you may also try my VEGGIE SALMON SUSHI ROLL. In addition, I have several Asian dishes on my MAIN COURSE Recipe Page, that you may like.
Regarding the dip, I am not sure what type of vegan mayo is available in your location. I personally use Vegenaise. However, you can use another brand, but you may have to adjust the taste. You can also make the dip from cashew by visiting this RECIPE.

Otherwise, if you have not made spring rolls before, please watch my video I have included with the recipe. It shows you easy to follow instructions on how to make it. It is nothing to be scared of and I hope you will give it a try.

Thank you so much for visiting and if you have any questions or suggestions I will be happy to hear from you. In the meantime, I wish you a wonderful week.
