    You can also save yourself some carbs and just serve the mixture in cabbage leaves, and not use the wrappers. - 5/21/08

    Were I eating all 8 rolls I might skip the sauces but spread through out 8 portions is minimal.
    I'd slip the rolling in cabbage as I'm making spring rolls not cabbage rolls. Any seafood would be good in this.
    I like sauted scallops and shitake mushrooms with a dash of sherry...chef Jim - 6/7/09

    I don't know what "spring rolls" are. This sounds a bit like Lumpia.
    Imitations crab is REAL fish, but real shrimp sound good.Scarlett... had a good idea to eat this mixture on the leaf. But I love finger food. Enjoy. - 6/7/09

    Definitely actual shrimp instead of imitation crab! And definitely use the low sodium versions of sauces. I totally love these and was glad to see someone took time to enter the recipe (same as mine). Thanks! - 3/13/09

    Definitely want to try a Vegetarian version of this. I am thinking Tofu or tasty mushrooms instead of fake crab, and omitting oyster sauce. - 5/21/08

    Oyster and soy sauce have a lot of sodium. I would suggest sweating the cabbage, scallions and carrots in 1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth with a litlle bit of soy, omitting the oyster sauce completely. It would add to the flavor needed without a lot of sodium. - 5/21/08

    These are the Best!! Great taste for being so low calorie!!! I make the vegetarian version- skip the crab and add grilled tofu. I also add more protein and flavor by adding peanut sauce (the lowest cal peanut sauce i can find) - 5/21/08

    This would definitely make a nice change to a fried item when making healthy stir fry. - 5/21/08

    Add some fresh mint leaves to make it more traditional. We omit the fake crab and the sauces and, while eating, dip it in a mixture of crunchy peanut butter or almond butter with water and hot chili sauce. It removes the sodium content and we control the amount. Yumm - 5/21/08

    This reminds me of Nime Chow, which is very tasty! If you are worried about sodium, just use the low sodium soy sauce and you'll be good! Also, if you add some finely chopped peanuts, you'll get a great burst of flavor! - 5/21/08

    This recipe looks great. I'm a nut for spring rolls.I'll let you know how they turned out. - 5/21/08
  • LADYANWYN
    This recipe looks interesting and very tasty; interesting because it is chilled rather than fried or baked. It's a bit high in sodium, but it seems like good sodium, and I'd be willing to forego any concerns about that in order to partake in this treat. I will definitely make this recipe. - 5/21/08
