I haven't tried either, but I have 2 in my files:

Asian Salad Rolls with Spicy Peanut Sauce - chef tina jo

These Asian salad rolls are a party favorite. They are always the first go!! They are easy to make, super affordable and absolutely delicious! Just wrap and roll, add the dipping sauce and watch them disappear!

1 whole red bell pepper, seeded and julienne
1 whole cucumber peeled, seeded and julienne
4 whole green onions, finely julienne
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
1 bunch lettuce greens
1 whole carrots, large, scrubbed and thinly julienne
1 cup purple cabbage, shredded
6 whole spring roll skins

Procedure

1 Cut all your ingredients and have at the ready. Place some water into a bowl large enough to accommodate the rice skins. Briefly dip one skin at a time into the water - be careful not to get them too wet because they'll turn to mush.
2 Place the damp rice skin on a flat surface and start to build your ingredients - start first with a few leaves of lettuce and some of the other ingredients in any order you see fit. Place the ingredients on the skin, just a bit off-center towards you. Be sure not to overstuff, for this makes them hard to roll.
3 Now, fold both sides of the rice skin over the top of the filling. Then begin to roll the skin over the ingredients. Be sure to tuck the front edge of the skin under the ingredients. Continue to roll.
4 When it comes to rolling spring rolls, practice makes perfect!
5 Either serve whole or cut in half making a diagonal cut. Serve with dipping sauce or drizzle it over the rolls.

Servings: 6

1 Tbsp chipotle peppers, diced

Dorothy from taichibozeman.com shows how to make Raw Peanut Sauce using Jungle Peanuts:

Sprouted Peanut Sauce - Dorothy

*1 c. sprouted peanuts (soak 1 c. raw peanuts overnight; drain in a sprout bag and rinse several times a day for up to 5 days.)
4 tsp. Bragg's Amino Acids or Nama Shoyu
4 T. raw honey, agave, coconut crystals or other sweetener
4 T. lime juice
1 c. coconut milk or water plus a little rejuvelac (optional)
dash of red chili flakes
1 clove crushed garlic
1/4 tsp. green curry paste
2 tsp. rice wine vinegar
grated ginger
3 T. Vegan Worcestershire sauce - optional

Blend all until creamy. Delicious over salads, as a dip for raw veges, as a spread for raw crackers or raw sushi.

* Dorothy said you can sub 1T almond butter (I would think more though?) She said you can check her recipe for "Dorothy's no peanut sauce" . or you can use raw spanish peanuts, but you have to soak them for 5 days and sprout them for 5 days.
