INSTRUCTIONS:

Then, then top with yellow bell pepper, zucchini, carrots, and red cabbage.
Fold in the left and the right sides on the rice paper, then lift the bottom edge over the vegetables.
Tightly tuck and roll the rice paper away from you.
Continue rolling as tightly as possible until the roll is closed.
