spring rolls

These spring rolls are packed with nutrient-dense, vibrant veggies (and mouthwatering mango!) and bursting with flavor. We love that they’re so versatile—enjoy them as a between-meal snack, as part of a Flex meal or as a side to any of your favorite Nutrisystem meals.

Our favorite things about these spring rolls is that you aren’t limited to using only the veggies listed in this healthy recipe. Pack in some red peppers and leafy greens like we did for an added nutrient boost or add a little crunch to your spring roll with some shredded carrots. Some of our vegetarian readers have even suggested adding in a half cup of steamed tofu or unsalted edamame for an added protein punch (a half cup of either of these options would count as one PowerFuel on the Nutrisystem diet plan). Either way, we’re pretty sure you’ll love these spring rolls. And don’t even get us started on that sauce!
