It happens to the best of us! I too crave some junk food once in a while. But I’m never too worried when it happens. Because I simply go and make it myself in my very own kitchen! And what is so great about it you ask?! Simply the fact that I know EXACTLY what’s in it. I know what kind of oil I use, I know how many veggies I want to put, I choose if it’s baked or fried, and I totally control the salt and sugar levels. So what could be so, so bad about it? I call it “homemade healthy-junk food”. And I love it.
So as you may know, egg rolls are usually fried. Stuffed with green cabbage and carrots, or ground meat I believe. Like I always do, I use what I have on hand, and make it as useful as possible. What I had today was purple cabbage instead of green. It came out so colorful and really delicious. Hope you give it a try!

1 package Gefen Egg Roll Wrappers
1/2 red cabbage, shredded and washed
2 carrots, cut into sticks or grated
2 tablespoons grapeseed or avocado oil
2-3 slices fresh ginger, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons organic teriyaki or soy sauce
black pepper, to taste
Preheat oven to 420 degrees Fahrenheit.
Heat up oil in a wide skillet. Add the garlic and ginger and mix for about 30-50 seconds. Add the cabbage and carrots and mix well. Let cook for about five minutes to soften a bit. Add the soy or teriyaki sauce and sprinkle some black pepper. Turn of the heat and let cool.
Prepare a small bowl with water to dip your hands into when making the eggrolls. Prepare a baking sheet lined with Gefen Parchment Paper and oil spray for using later.
Once the veggies are cool, place one eggroll wrapper like a diamond on a clean dry surface. Take one tablespoon of the cooked cabbage mixture and place on the lower edge of the wrapper. (Make sure not to use any of the cooking liquids).
Dip your finger (or brush) into the water bowl and run it on the top edges of the eggroll wrapper. This will help stick it all together when folding.
To fold: Think of it as an envelope. Start from folding the bottom edge upwards, and then the two other sides to the middle. Eventually, roll it to the top and place it on the parchment paper seam side down. Repeat this process until all eggrolls are done.
Spray a nice even coating of oil on the eggrolls and place in a preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes total. After 10 minutes of the baking process flip with two forks and continue baking until golden and crunchy!

Hi. As I need to eat gluten free, do you think this recipe would work well with Pesach-made crepes, and then baked? In the past, I have made manicotti using these crepes baked in a tomato sauce.
Thanks for your help.
That’s a good idea, I don’t see why it wouldn’t be delicious! Obviously it won’t be crunchy, but it should still taste great.
