• Place a handful of mixed greens and mint across the center of the wrapper, leaving about 2 inches uncovered on 2 opposite sides. Top the greens with a neat row of 4 shrimp halves. Fold the 2 uncovered sides inward, then tightly roll the wrapper from a side covered with greens. Repeat with remaining rice paper wrappers.
