Instructions:

Before you start cooking, heat the oven to 375F 190C

Spread the cooked quinoa out on a baking sheet

Roast it for 10 to 15 minutes, or until it turns a light golden color

Let it cool down all the way

Put warm water in a big bowl

Each spring roll wrapper should be dipped for 5 to 10 seconds, or until it becomes soft

Open the wrapper and lay it out on a clean surface

Place the quinoa, carrots, cucumber, red bell pepper, purple cabbage, cilantro, and mint leaves in the middle

As you roll up the wrapper from the bottom, fold the sides in toward the middle

This will make a spring roll

Do this for the rest of the wrappers

In a bowl, mix together 1/2 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1-2 teaspoons Sriracha to make the spicy peanut sauce

You can dip the spring rolls in the spicy peanut sauce that you serve with them
