Spring Skiing Spring Rolls with Miso Peanut Dipping Sauce


Crunchy, flavorful, and refreshing, when the sun comes out, spring rolls are the first thing to make an appearance on our table. This was one of the first recipes we developed for the Cookbook For Ski Bums, a fun but approachable little cooking project that utilizes the fresh bounty of spring. We'd also be lying if we didn't admit that it was partially to encourage our fellow dirtbags to eat a few more vegetables... two birds, right?


Whip these up as a fun appetizer for a spring dinner party, enjoy a big plate for a light lunch, or pack some in a container and leave them in a cooler at the trailhead for a crunchy, satisfying aprés treat.
