Cheesy Spinach Egg Roll
Ingredients
- 2 Tbs butter
- 1/4 cup minced onion
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 Tbs flour
- 1/4 cup milk
- 5 oz spinach fresh
- 2 Tbs mayonnaise
- 1 Tbs ranch dressing
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Instructions
-
In a large skillet over medium heat melt the butter and add the onion, cooking until tender about 4-5 minutes.
-
Stir in the flour and milk and cook an additional minute or two, then add the spinach and cook until all the leaves are wilted, just a few minutes.
-
Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the mayonnaise, each dressing and shredded cheese.
-
Lay out 8 egg roll wrappers on a clean surface and place 1 1/2 Tbs of the spinach mixture into the center of each.
-
Wet your finger with water and apply it to the outer edges of each wrapper, then working on a diagonal (think a diamond shape) fold bottom edge up over the filling. Bring the side points in to meet the fold and roll up to the remaining point.
-
Spray the spinach rolls with cooking spray on both sides.
For air fryer - place in the basket and set the temperature to 375º F and cook for 8-10 minutes.
For oven - Set oven to 400º F and bake for 15-17 minutes on a sheet pan with a cooling rack inserted on top (this will ensure even air flow) until golden brown.
