Prepare all your ingredients. Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions, and let them cool.

In a small bowl, mix all the satay sauce ingredients together until you have a smooth, creamy sauce. Adjust the soy sauce and sweetener to your taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more water to thin it.

Fill a large bowl with warm water. Dip a rice paper sheet into the water for a few seconds until it becomes pliable but not too soft. Place it on a clean, damp kitchen towel.

On the bottom third of the rice paper, add a small amount of cooked rice noodles, followed by some red cabbage, carrots, cucumber, bell pepper, fresh herbs, and tofu (if using).

Carefully fold the sides of the rice paper inwards and then roll it up tightly, similar to a burrito. Repeat this process with the remaining rice paper sheets and filling ingredients.

Serve the rice paper rolls with the satay sauce for dipping.

Enjoy your vibrant vegan rice paper rolls as a light and delicious appetizer or snack!
