1. Prepare the butter lettuce leaves by carefully detaching them from the head of lettuce. Rinse and pat dry, ensuring they are pliable but intact.
2. Wash and julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper into thin matchstick-sized strips. Shred the purple cabbage finely and transfer all vegetables to individual bowls for easy assembly.
3. Chop the fresh cilantro and mint leaves, keeping them aside for garnish and flavor.
4. To assemble the vegetable rolls, lay a butter lettuce leaf flat on a clean work surface. At the base of the leaf, place a handful of julienned carrot, cucumber, red bell pepper, and shredded cabbage. Sprinkle a few leaves of cilantro and mint on top.
5. Roll the lettuce leaf tightly from the base to the top, ensuring the filling stays intact. Repeat with the remaining lettuce leaves and vegetables.
6. Prepare the dipping sauce by mashing the avocado in a small bowl until smooth. Stir in lime juice, coconut aminos, garlic powder, and salt. If the texture is too thick, add a tablespoon of water to achieve a creamier consistency.
7. Serve the vegetable rolls on a platter alongside the avocado dipping sauce and enjoy immediately!
