Ingredients (serves 4):
- 1 lb ground bison
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8-10 rice paper wrappers
- Water for soaking the rice paper wrappers
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to cook the quinoa according to the package instructions and let it cool before mixing it with the ground bison.
- Use a non-stick pan to cook the ground bison and vegetables to prevent sticking.
- Soak the rice paper wrappers in warm water for about 10 seconds before using them to make the rolls.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the ground bison, cooked quinoa, chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, chopped parsley, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the bison mixture and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned and cooked through.
3. Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
4. Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip a rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10 seconds, until it becomes soft and pliable.
5. Lay the rice paper wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the bison mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
6. Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.
7. Repeat with the remaining rice paper wrappers and bison mixture.
8. Serve the rolls immediately, garnished with additional chopped parsley and cilantro, if desired.
