Prepare all the vegetables: slice the red bell pepper and cucumber into thin julienne strips, shred the red cabbage, julienne the carrot, slice the avocado thinly, and separate the lettuce leaves.
In a shallow dish, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, lime juice, and sriracha to make a dipping sauce. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and set aside.
Fill a large bowl with warm water. One at a time, dip the rice paper wrappers in the water to soften (about 15-20 seconds), then remove and lay flat on a dry surface.
Place a lettuce leaf on the lower third of the rice paper. On top of the lettuce, arrange a small portion of red bell pepper, cucumber, carrot, red cabbage, avocado slices, a few mint and cilantro leaves.
Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose all the ingredients. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and fillings.
Once all rolls are made, slice in half if desired and serve immediately with the prepared dipping sauce.
