Our favorite summer meal has been Abby’s spring rolls, this time made with leftover salmon. Super easy, fresh and delicious, Abby’s Salmon Rolls are really good. Use Thai sauce, because for me, rolls are all about the dipping!

Salmon Spring Rolls Recipe

We are a salmon-eating family, or I should say salmon-loving. We eat it several times a week, so leftovers often make the BEST recipes. And we love these spring rolls for an appetizer or lunch (or even a snack)!

Lettuce wrapped rolls

They are unbelievably easy to make, healthy and so delicious. Best part is these are gluten-free and dairy-free, so you’re safe serving if you don’t know what diets your guests are on. We love to use romaine lettuce.

These salmon summer rolls make beautiful little bites to keep in the fridge, for when you just need a healthy nosh.

Where do you get spring roll wrappers?

This is one of the most common questions we get asked. We find spring roll wrappers in the dairy aisle, near the tofu section at your local grocery store.

How to roll the rice paper

Wrapping the rolls is not as intimidating as it looks (it’s very easy) and you can fill them with many different fillings.

After laying down the lettuce leaf, gently pick up the sides of the spring roll and fold them in over the toppings. Then pick up the closest edge and pull it up and snugly over the toppings.

Continue to roll up like a small burrito. It’s fairly easy to keep all of the ingredients tightly pushed together, as you roll to the end.

How to make salmon spring rolls

1. Flake the salmon (or leave in small chunks)
2. Cut and wash full leaves of romaine; remove the outside leaves
3. Peel cucumber and slice into strips lengthwise and shred the carrots
4. Mix rice vinegar with sugar; divide
5. Cook the rice noodles
6. Dip rice sheet in water and lay on dry towel to remove excess water; place on flat surface
7. Carefully place romaine leaf, salmon, cucumber, rice noodle, cilantro, and carrots side by side on sheet
8. Roll and serve with peanut or sweet chile sauce

Repeat with the remaining rice paper wrappers keep filling.

Spring rolls are versatile

I love how versatile these are and how quick they are to make. Think leftover chicken, or even tuna or chicken from a can, if you’re in a pinch. Also for all you shrimp lovers, make half a recipe with shrimp, and half with salmon!

They can easily be filled with your favorite veggies. The more colourful the filling the better they look and taste. And what’s your favorite dipping sauce? We love peanut sauce, but we always keep chili sauce in the fridge!
