Vegetarian Peach Summer Rolls with Tahini Dipping Sauce
Spring rolls get a summery twist by adding sweet sliced peaches. Don't skip the tahini dipping sauce -- that is what pulls all the flavors together.
The rice paper wrappers may begin to dry out after 3-4 days, but all they need is a light mist of water to soften and taste fresh again. If you'd like to add extra protein, shredded chicken, cooked shrimp, or garbanzo beans are all great additions.
Individually wrapped in rice paper, each serving of peach summer rolls has 11g of fat, 5g of protein, and only 228 calories. That means they're keto-friendly, and because they contain no animal products, they're vegan-friendly too!
We think these peach summer rolls would be great as a lighter-fare lunch option, but if you want extra protein, shrimp, chicken, or garbanzo beans make excellent additions.
Usually when we hear "leafy greens," we think spinach or kale. But these peach summer rolls contain mint and basil as their leafy greens!
Don't think they're any less healthy though-Basil, in particular, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and has even been said to fight cancer!
Speaking of mint, consider making these Mint Chocolate Energy Bites for dessert! If you love Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies, then this is the keto dessert for you!

How to Store

Ingredient Spotlight: Tahini
Tahini is a paste made from ground sesame seeds (fun fact: the word "tahini" comes from the Arabic tahana, meaning "to grind"). It's not just creamy-it's incredibly nutrient-dense.
Benefits of sesame seeds include:
- Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids
- Manganese, calcium, and amino acids
- Appetite-regulating MCTs (from the coconut milk!)

Ingredients
Summer Rolls
- 12 rice wrappers
- 1 large peach sliced
- 1 Cucumber cut into match sticks
- 2 cups Purple Cabbage shredded
- 1 cup basil
- ½ cup fresh mint
Tahini Dipping Sauce
- ¼ cup tahini
- ¼ cup coconut milk Canned, full fat
- 3 tbs lime juice
- 2 tbs Coconut Aminos
- ½ tbs Honey
- Sea Salt to taste
- sriracha chili sauce optional
Instructions
- Prepare the dipping sauce by adding all the ingredients to a blender, and processing until smooth. This can be done by hand but is easier in a blender.
- Set up a station with bowls of each ingredient. You will also need a cutting board, and a pie plate filled with warm water to soften the rice paper.
- Start by dipping a sheet of rice paper in water, making sure both sides are wet. Do not allow the rice paper to fully soften in the water. It will continue to soften once you've set it on the cutting board.
- Start filling your roll by adding the basil and mint leaves, and then adding cucumbers, shredded cabbage, and peaches.
- Fold the top and bottom of the rice paper to the center, and then roll the paper from left to right, tightly packing the rolls.
- Repeat with the rest of the rice paper wrappers.
- Serve with dipping sauce.
