Pizza Egg Rolls
The possibilities are endless for me when it comes to egg rolls. In this case, pizza egg rolls are one of those possibilities. Here I have for you an easy, kid friendly recipe I was able to make, while using ingredients I already had without making a grocery store run! Try it out for yourself!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 2 oz canned black olives sliced
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp Pizza and Pasta Magic seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 12 eggroll wrappers
- 2.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Avocado oil if cooking in skillet
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix all of the ingredients except the cheese.
- For each egg roll, lay out the wrapper, add about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and about 2 tablespoons of cheese then wrap your egg roll.
- Heat some oil in a large skillet on medium to low heat (I used avocado oil because it’s tasteless and odorless)
- Once the oil is heated, add your egg rolls and cook on each side for about a minute until nicely browned and crisp. Keep an eye on them so the cheese and sauce don’t leak out.
Notes
Tips:
- Don’t overstuff your wrappers because they can break or leak out as you’re wrapping the egg roll or cooking them.
- Place your stuffing on the bottom portion of the wrapper (pictured above)
- Have some water on hand so that you can rub the end corner of the wrapper with you fingers in order to seal the egg rolls and keep from unwrapping.
- Only cook for about a minute on each side or until nicely browned otherwise they can pop and the cheese will leak out.
- To wrap, roll the bottom part at least once until your stuffing is covered, then fold over the sides inward and roll the rest of the wrap after wetting the top corner with water.
- You can also use any ingredients you’d like. Whatever pizza toppings you prefer, go ahead and mix them in there.
