Prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions, typically soaking them in hot water for about 4-5 minutes until soft. Drain and set aside.
Peel and julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper into thin strips.
Thinly slice the red cabbage and roughly chop the mint and cilantro leaves.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, peel, and slice the flesh into thin strips.
To prepare the dipping sauce, in a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, the juice of one lime, freshly grated ginger, minced garlic clove, maple syrup, and sesame oil. Stir well and set aside.
Fill a large, shallow dish or pie pan with warm water. Working one at a time, dip each rice paper wrapper into the water for about 15-20 seconds and place it on a clean, damp kitchen towel or cutting board.
In the lower third of the rice paper wrapper, lay a few pieces each of carrot, cucumber, red bell pepper, red cabbage, mint, cilantro, avocado, and a small mound of rice noodles.
Gently fold over the sides of the wrapper and then tuck and roll from the bottom upwards tightly, but not too tight to avoid tearing.
Repeat the process with the remaining rice paper wrappers.
Serve the spring rolls with the prepared dipping sauce and enjoy immediately.
