- Combine the noodles, carrots, cucumber, lettuce and cabbage to make the filling.
- Soak the rice paper in warm water for about 15 seconds, until it starts to soften and then place it on a cutting board. Place about a half cup of the vegetable filling in the center of the wrapper and top it with the basil, cilantro, mint, avocado and two shrimp pieces.
