Rice paper recipes from Instagram inspire five vegetarian snacks at home
Rice paper is a very thin, light sheet that people are using to make snacks at home.
It comes from a popular photo and video app where people share food ideas.
Rice paper is said to be a healthier choice than the usual bread wraps.
You soak the thin sheets in water to soften them.
Then you can fill them with vegetables, cheese, or noodles and cook them.
One idea is to make crispy spring rolls with leftover vegetables.
Another idea is to make a pizza or pancake using rice paper as the crunchy base.
You can even make little puffed snack shells called golgappes using beetroot juice to color them.
These snacks are meant to be quick, tasty, and good for you.
People are trying these recipes at home for fun and healthy eating.
