BLT Summer Rolls with Avocado and Egg

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 strips of bacon I made half with real bacon for my family and half with tempeh bacon for me
  • 12 rice wrappers
  • 2 ripe avocados sliced in strips*
  • 2 beefsteak tomatoes sliced in strips*
  • 6 hard boiled eggs sliced*
  • 1 romaine lettuce heart chopped in 3" pieces
  • vegan mayonnaise or favorite mayonnaise
  • 4 large basil leaves rolled and sliced thinly
  • *Don't prep these ahead of time you'll see in the recipe directions - I'll prompt you there.

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon into the skillet and cook until crispy. Set aside on a paper towel lined plate and when cool enough to handle, break each strip in half.
  • While bacon cooks, prep all of your ingredients per the ingredient list. Set all of the ingredients up in a row so it's easier to assemble the rolls.
  • Once the bacon is done cooking, prepare your summer rolls. Dip a rice wrapper in warm water for 5-10 seconds or until soft and lay on a flat surface.
  • Place the bacon down first, placing it on the side closest to your body. Add a bacon half piece, an avocado slice or two (depending on how thick you sliced them - you don't want to overstuff the rolls, they won't easily roll), 1-2 tomato slices, and 1-2 pieces of hard boiled egg. Then, take a piece of romaine lettuce, spread mayonnaise on it (I used about 1/4 teaspoon) and then sprinkle with sliced basil, placing the lettuce on top of the rest of the ingredients, mayo side facing down.
  • Before rolling, dip your hands in water and then roll the summer roll, keeping it tight and folding the sides inward like a burrito. Roll and place on a serving plate, seam side down.
  • Repeat with remaining ingredients until all are used up and you've made about 12 rolls.
