vietnamese spring rolls with lemongrass beef and shrimp!
If you have ever been fortunate to be invited to a Vietnamese person's home to have this meal do it! We do this at home maybe once a month and a great way to get my hubby to eat fresh veggies.
This is a fun meal for everyone! While prep time is mainly washing veggies,slicing cucumbers, making the sauce and boiling noodles. If you're feeling extra fancy, you had butterflied shrimp and calamari.
