Tofu Summer Rolls with Caesar Sauce

Tofu Summer Rolls with Caesar Sauce 🥢🥬

Fresh, crunchy, and bursting with flavor, these Tofu Summer Rolls with Caesar Sauce are a light yet satisfying meal or snack. Instead of the usual Asian-style fillings, this twist combines creamy avocado, crisp Romaine, and savory Parmesan with golden pan-fried tofu, all wrapped in delicate rice paper. Dip them in Caesar dressing for a bold, tangy finish — perfect for warm days when you want something refreshing but filling.

Benefits of Each Ingredient

Tofu

  • A lean, plant-based protein source.

  • Rich in calcium and iron, making it great for muscle repair and bone health.

Coconut Oil

  • Helps crisp up the tofu while adding a subtle nutty flavor.

  • Provides medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), a quick energy source.

Romaine Lettuce

  • Hydrating and low in calories.

  • Adds crunch and freshness, balancing out the creamy Caesar dressing.

Avocado

  • Provides healthy monounsaturated fats and fiber.

  • Creamy texture pairs perfectly with the crisp veggies.

(Vegan) Parmesan Cheese

  • Adds a salty, umami punch to balance the fresh ingredients.

  • A small amount goes a long way in boosting flavor.

Caesar Salad Dressing

  • Brings tangy, garlicky richness to the rolls.

  • Works as both a filling binder and a dipping sauce.

Rice Paper Wrappers

  • Light, gluten-free, and versatile.
