Fill a shallow dish that will fit the rice paper wraps with warm water.

Set a rice paper wrap in the dish making sure the water goes over the top and let it sit for 10-15 seconds.

Take the wrap out of the water and lay it flat on a cutting board.

Start layering the vegetables on one side of the wrap about an inch from the edge, laying them all in the same direction about 3 inches long.

Take the one inch edge and gently fold it over the veggies and start to roll forward slightly.

Take the side edges and fold it over the roll towards the middle so that the ends are 'tucked in'.

Continue rolling the roll forward pressing the rice paper to itself.

Place the rolls on a plate making sure not to stack them on each other or they will stick together.

Continue making rolls until you have used all of the veggies or you have the amount that you want to eat.

Whisk sauce ingredients together.
