Ingredients
  

8 rice paper wrappers

1 cup strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced

1 cup mango, peeled and diced into small cubes

1 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced into rounds

1 cup blueberries, washed

1 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1 ripe avocado, pitted and sliced

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

Warm water for softening rice papers

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients:

    - Thoroughly wash all the fruits. Hull and slice the strawberries, peel and dice the mango, peel and slice the kiwi, and wash the blueberries. Arrange each prepared fruit in separate bowls to streamline the assembly process.

      Soften Rice Paper:

        - Pour warm water into a shallow dish or large plate. Take one rice paper wrapper and fully submerge it in the warm water for about 10-15 seconds, or until it becomes soft and flexible. Carefully remove the wrapper from the water and lay it flat on a clean, flat surface, ensuring it’s fully spread out.

          Assemble the Spring Rolls:

            - Begin layering your fillings in the center of the softened rice paper. Start with a few slices of each fruit (strawberries, mango, kiwi, and blueberries), followed by a couple of fresh mint leaves for a delightful flavor. Add a slice of avocado for creaminess, and if you desire extra sweetness, drizzle a little honey or agave syrup over the fillings.

              Roll the Spring Rolls:

                - Gently fold the sides of the rice paper inward over the filling. Starting from the bottom edge, carefully roll the wrapper upwards, tucking the filling in as you go, to create a tight but gentle roll. Ensure that the fillings are securely encased within the rice paper. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and fillings until all are assembled.

                  Serve:

                    - Arrange the completed spring rolls on a decorative platter. You can serve them as is, or pair them with a simple dipping sauce. A refreshing dip made from a blend of lime juice and honey or agave syrup complements the flavors beautifully!

                      Enjoy:

                        - These vibrant and delightful summer fruit spring rolls make for a perfect snack, dessert, or light meal. Relish in the refreshing combination of flavors and the satisfying texture of the rolls!
