Start by preparing the rice vermicelli noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and rinse them under cold water. Set them aside to cool.
Julienne the carrot and cucumber into thin strips.
To prepare the dipping sauce, combine gluten-free soy sauce, peanut butter, rice vinegar, lime juice, brown sugar, minced garlic clove, and Sriracha in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Fill a large shallow dish or pie plate with warm water. Working one at a time, dip a rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until it starts to soften. Place it on a clean, damp towel or a cutting board.
Place a piece of lettuce on the lower third of the wrapper nearest to you, followed by a small portion of vermicelli, a few strips of carrot and cucumber, some bean sprouts, two shrimp, and a sprinkle of mint and cilantro leaves.
Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling just tightly enough to hold it together. Fold in the sides, then roll up the wrapper tightly starting from the filled bottom edge.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and fillings.
Slice each roll in half diagonally and serve with the prepared dipping sauce.
