  • 2 cups frozen corn, thawed
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded reduced-fat Mexican cheese blend

Tip

Cutting Green Onions

I recently tried a recipe that called for 3/4 cup green onions. Instead of using a knife, I found that snipping the onions with a pair of kitchen scissors took only a few seconds. —Kristy B., Kelowna, British Columbia

These egg rolls were out of this world. I love the fact they are baked, because I can't eat fried egg rolls. The corn & black beans were wonderful combined with all the spiced. You won't be disappointed when making these.

Have made these twice now. Last time we doubled the recipe and froze them. I love that they are baked (not fried) but still crispy and full of veggies. They're a hit every time!

Very tasty. My package of egg rolls came with 15 and I used about 1/3 cup filling for each. I think next time I will brush with olive oil or butter to get a more crunchy egg roll wrap. They were a little dry.
