These are like spring rolls except in this version, they aren't deep-fried, so they are much healthier and lighter, perfect for a party. They are beautiful, as well, because you can see all of the rich colors through the rice paper.
I have to be honest. I didn't like these at all. Maybe it's just my personal taste. I didn't want to waste all of the ingredients, so I made a new recipe, which I call Sweet Spiral Shrimp. I'll post that recipe soon!

Dip a sheet of rice paper into a bowl of warm water for a few seconds, just until soft and bendable. Lay the paper on a cutting board. In the center of the paper, place noodles, 3 or 4 shrimp halves, bell pepper strips, mango strips, scallions, and a few whole cilantro leaves. Make sure to leave at least a 1 inch border around the edges of the rice paper.
