Rice Paper Rolls- Your way!

So.  Some nights my meal planning and pre prep fails me.  And i take out something that has lost its label and assume it will be enough for all 4 kidgredients.  Tonight my planning failed me.  There was enough chicken in my package for the two mini kidregients and maybe a nibble from a big kidgredient.  PLAN B? Yep, there wasn't one.

Until I remembered I had some rice paper rolls, some bifun noodles and veggies.  Plus a few slices of smoked salmon.

1 ear of corn, kernels removed
2 spring onions, sliced into small rings
1/2 a Lebanese cucumber, cut into lengthways matchstick slices.
1/3 cup Vietnamese salad dressing
