I was surprised by these little gems. Jim loves them and requests them all the time. It's one of those out-of-the-ordinary foods with a familiar taste. Lower in fat due to baking, and not frying!

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb lean ground beef
1 cup green onion, chopped
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet taco seasoning
1 cup egg substitute (egg beaters)
8 egg roll wraps
4 tablespoons low-fat taco cheese

Steps:

  • Brown the ground beef and onions, and add the taco seasoning.
  • Take one egg roll wrapper and add 1/8 of the beef mixture in a line, diagonally from one corner to the other to make rolling the egg roll easier. Top with a 1/2 tbsp of cheese. Roll up like an egg roll. (See egg roll packaging for detailed directions on how to roll your egg rolls).
  • Repeat with the rest of the egg roll wrappers.
  • Pour egg substitute into shallow bowl and dip all of the egg rolls, coating evenly. Place on cookie sheet that's been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray (very important!).
  • Bake at 375°F for 20 minutes or until light brown and crispy.
  • Better than deep fried and just as crispy!
  • You can add many different fillings: chicken or cabbage and green onions for Chinese egg rolls, etc.
  • Note: I find the egg roll wrappers in the produce section, where they have the dressings and foods like tofu and the like.
