If you want a healthy and filling lunch that uses up ingredients from your fridge, you will love these Beef, Vegetable and 2-minute Noodle Rice Paper Rolls.

I was going to call these the Fridge Clean Out Rice Paper Rolls as that is exactly where I got my ingredients from – the fridge.

I had leftover spiraled veggies and some 2-minute noodles I’d made for Maggie (anyone see the irony in what I just typed!!) and I wanted to use them up in another dish. I also had a big beef roast that I had been carving for lunches.

So I came up with these rice paper rolls and the ingredients worked perfectly.

You can really put any vegetables and meat filling in your rice paper rolls. It’s better to have firmer ingredients to wet and droopy ingredients.

I grabbed some mint and chives from the garden to add a bit of flavour, and then put together a sesame sauce for dipping.

What I love about these rice paper rolls is they can be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge, which means they work well for a lunchbox.

I’m not the best at folding the rice paper rolls, but there is a diagram on the pack that I used and I think I did alright. I would imagine you get better as you practice.

Having a pack of rice paper sheets in the pantry can be good for emergency dinners or simply to use up ingredients in the fridge. Jacob and I have had rice paper rolls for dinner as a dinner on a hot, summers night.
