Low FODMAP Spring Roll Bowls with Tahini Maple Sauce is a gluten-free and vegan recipe. It features all of the ingredients of a Vietnamese spring roll, but without all of the tedious work of rolling. A sweet and tangy sauce rounds out this complete vegan meal.
Since spring is finally here, I thought it would be the perfect time to share this recipe for spring roll bowls. I’ve made Vietnamese Spring Rolls a couple of times. Although I loved the flavor, rolling them in thin rice paper was a little too tedious for me. It wasn’t difficult, but it tried my patience. So I thought I would try making a bowl instead. The Low FODMAP Spring Roll Bowls with Maple Tahini Sauce recipe was born.
I thought these bowls would make a delicious lunch, so I decided to add some protein in the form of marinated tofu to round them out. I started using tahini a lot last year and appreciated what a wonderful base it would be for the Tahini Maple Sauce to accompany the bowls. Hopefully I will have some more recipes with tahini to share with you soon, but until then I give you this sauce. It’s the perfect finishing touch to these cold spring roll noodle bowls. Enjoy!
Time needed: 20 minutes
