  • 1 cup vermicelli noodles cooked
  • 1 cup lettuce leaves thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup carrot julienned

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

  1. 1 Bring a small pot of water to a boil and cook shrimp for about 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Drain and set aside to cool.

  5. 5 Fold the sides inward, then tightly roll the wrapper from the bottom to the top, enclosing the filling. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
