Hey, hi! Happy Monday!! Starting things off very bright and colorful today with this spring roll bowl. Just looking at these photos gives me energy, so I figured it was the perfect Monday recipe. Plus, I do think it’s always a good idea to start the Monday after St.Patrick’s Day weekend off with something a little more on the healthy side.

I mean, am I right or what?

Speaking of St. Patrick’s Day and the weekend, did you guys do anything fun? Honestly, I totally forgot about St. Patrick’s Day this year and instead spent the day picking out tiles and countertops for the studio. Very exciting, huh? Yeah, not so much, but glad that things are getting closer and closer to finally being finished. Literally just cannot wait until the space is fully complete. While I feel so incredibly grateful (and excited) to be able to build such and an amazing and inspiring workspace, to say that the process has been a pain in the butt would be a complete understatement. To all looking to build, be warned, stress and headaches are part of the package. Or at least that’s been our experience.

Biggest shout out to my mom/business partner/general contractor/legit super women for taking the lead and getting work done. Fingers crossed that our May first completion date sticks, because we have some fun things planned as soon as we get into the space.

PS. that new studio post that I have been teasing you guys about for weeks now, will (finally) ACTUALLY be coming this week. I honestly was planning on posting it for each of the past two weeks, but we just weren’t able to get all of the info together in time!

OK. And moving along.

I am sure you guys can probably tell, but I’m very ready for spring and am clearly craving all the most colorful recipes. Enter this spring roll bowl that’s truly like eating a veggie and fruit filled rainbow with a side of shrimp and rice noodles. In the HBH cookbook I have a recipe for shrimp and avocado spring rolls that I love, but sometimes I don’t love standing in the kitchen for an hour and rolling out thirty plus spring rolls. Ditching the spring roll wrappers, adding in rice noodles, and then tossing everything together into a bowl…a much simpler approach to spring rolls!

And you know? I might just like eating spring roll bowls more than spring rolls themselves. Yes, you know what, I do. But then I am very much of a bowl food kind of girl.

Anyway, while we do lose the wrappers traditionally used in spring rolls, we gain rice noodles, so really it’s long the same lines, but in a little” noodlier” form, which as you might guess, I love. I wanted to keep my bowls really quick cooking (because it’s Monday and no one has more than thirty minutes), so I used shrimp and all the fresh spring veggies I had on hand…rainbow carrots, watermelon radishes, bell peppers, and lots of herbs. I also added avocado and a sweet chili mango sauce that really makes these bowls. The shrimp and veggies are good and all, but this bowl is all about that chili mango sauce.

It. Is. The. BEST.

The mango sauce consists of fresh mango, honey, chili paste, and a good amount of ginger. It’s sweet, spicy, and all things addicting. If you like a saucy noodle bowl, I might even double the recipe because the sauce is that good.

Of course the number one thing I love about this spring roll bowl is that it is delicious, but the second thing I love most?

The fact that you can make this entire bowl completely ahead of time, and I swear the longer the noodles and veggies sit in the sauce, the more delicious everything becomes. Meaning this is the perfect recipe to meal prep with. The only thing I would add just before serving is the avocado. Everything else can be kept in the fridge for a couple of days and served warm or cold.

Also, this is a very adaptable bowl. You could use shredded chicken or tofu in place of the shrimp and just about any veggies you love most.

Simple, quick, healthy, and really good. Yep, that just about sums up the perfect Monday recipe.

  1. This was so fresh and bright with the basil, cilantro, lime & ginger flavors. My husband & I loved it. I have about 5 thai dishes in my usual rotation so I’m happy to add another. Vietnamese is so satisfying because it hits every note on the tongue like fireworks. I had to improvise a tad on the sauce as I didn’t have sambol so I used red chili flakes, squirt of sriracha & couple TBLS mae ploy along w/the other sauce ingredients.

    1. Hey Jill,
      I like to use cold shrimp. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan

    This was absolute heaven in a bowl! I only wish I had those beautiful watermelon radishes, but alas, ’tis not the season up here in the arctic circle. Used regular radishes, and it was still good and looked pretty. That spicy mango sauce is DIVINE. Thank you!

    Just discovered your blog today! Delicious, made this for dinner tonight. I added extra sambal oelek to finish. We are going to have left overs for days. Great dish to make for company and has me thinking about warmer weather!

    This was wonderful!!! I made the sauce on Sunday so it was ready and helped make dinner easier on a weeknight. Everyone loved this; we’ll certainly make it again and get creative with the protein/veggie combos. Thanks! ❤️
