As a busy working woman, I'm always looking for quick and easy recipes that are still delicious and satisfying. These Baked Southwestern Egg Rolls fit the bill perfectly. They're made with simple, everyday ingredients that I usually have on hand, and they can be assembled and baked in just a few minutes.
The filling is a flavorful blend of black beans, corn, spinach, and cheese, and the egg roll wrappers get nice and crispy in the oven. I like to serve them with salsa for dipping, but they're also great with guacamole or sour cream. These egg rolls are perfect for a party appetizer or a quick weeknight meal. They're also a great way to use up leftover vegetables.
Step-by-step
- In a large bowl, combine everything but the egg roll wrappers. Mix well to blend.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper out on a work surface so that one of the corners is pointing toward you and place ¼ cup of the filling in the center.
- Fold the tip closest to you up over the filling, roll a bit, then take the points pointing outward and fold them in toward the center.
- Continue rolling into an egg roll shape until a small part of the remaining point is still free.
- Dip a finger in water or beaten egg and lightly brush on the edges of the free corner.
- Finish rolling and press to seal closed. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Preheat the oven to 425º F. Lightly oil a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Place the sealed egg rolls on the baking sheet seam side down and spray the tops of the egg rolls with cooking spray.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, or until lightly brown, turning halfway through baking.
- Serve warm with salsa.
