Directions
Rolls and Noodles
Bring a saucepan of water to boil, add noodles, boil for 3-5 minutes or until done. Drain in cold water and set aside.
Fill a large bowl or container with warm water. Dip wrappers in warm water to soften.
Lay wrapper flat, in a roll across the center lay 3 shrimp halves (if using shrimp), a hand full of noodles, several basil, mint and cilantro leaves, cucumbers, carrots, daikon, hemp leaves, romaine hearts and green onions leaving 2 inches uncovered on each end. Fold uncovered sides inward, then tightly roll the wrapper, beginning at the end closest to you.
Repeat this process until you are finished with 8 rolls.
Serve rolls with your choice of dipping sauces. (rolls can be cut to share)

If sauce is too thick for your liking, thin with more warm water. Set aside.
