Lunch with Mr. Kummerow

Despite being weary with hunger and my legs wobbly with 10.4 miles behind them, I still managed to fix a wonderful lunch for Mr. Kummerow and me.  He decided he would come home to have lunch with me today and I didn't want him to be disappointed.  It took every inkling of housewife-energy to remove myself from the couch, but I had this lunch to look forward to:
Veggie Spring Rolls
Ingredients:
Rice Noodles
Cabbage
Zucchini
Red Pepper
Leek
Rice Spring Roll Wraps

Cook Rice Noodles according to package instructions.  Chop cabbage, zucchini, pepper, and leek.
To assemble:
Dip a rice wrapper in water (I use a jelly roll pan filled with water).  Flip and dip again.
And then give it a shake.
Pat with a tea towel.
Lay flat on a cutting board or flat surface and top with ingredients.
Wrap sides into middle.
Then roll.
And place on a plate.
I served my veggie spring rolls with a variation of the hummus-shoyu dressing.  I just used a little more shoyu to make it more liquidy- and added agave nectar to give it a sweet and sour flavor.
I also served up veggies with lunch.

Super easy Sesame-Ginger Steamed and Roasted Veggies
1 bag Steamfresh veggies (any kind- and no this is not cheating!)
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp grated ginger
sesame seeds

Steam veggies in bag in microwave for 3-4 minutes
Mix veggies with sesame oil, and ginger and place on cookie sheet.
Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and broil for 5-7 minutes, checking frequently.
Good lunch. Happy Husband.
