Recipe from Pampered Chef 11/27/16
Christmas is over and New Years Eve is right around the corner! New Years Eve has always been a fun holiday for me because it’s my birthday! We usually do something low key, have some friends over or go out for dinner. If we go to a friends house I usually bring an appetizer. Appetizers that don’t require an oven are always a good idea. It’s hard to know whether oven space with be available when you get there or if the oven will even be on. These springs rolls can be served at any point in the night because they don’t need to be warm. Remember your body doesn’t know it’s Christmas or New Years Eve so try not to go balls to the wall with food during the holidays. Get your vegetables any way you can! These rolls have protein, vegetables and a healthy fat. Doesn’t get any better than that!
