Vegetarian Eggrolls

These are easy, and they are baked! So you can eat a bunch of them and not feel guilty. I used several types of cabbage and bean sprouts for the majority of the filling. The dipping sauce is the best part and probably where most of your calories are coming from. I like sweet and sour but can use whatever you have on hand.

Ingredients:
  • Eggroll wrappers
  • Green cabbage
  • Red cabbage
  • Green onion
  • Mango
  • Bean Sprouts
  • Garlic
  • Pepper
  • Salt
Directions:
  • Dice cabbage, onion, and mango
  • Sautee diced cabbage, green onion and mango
  • Add seasonings
  • Fill center of egg roll wrapper with vegetables
  • Top with bean sprouts
  • Roll like a burrito
  • Spray both sides with butter spray
  • Flip halfway through
  • Bake until crispy

Enjoy!

Ingredients:
  • Cabbage
  • Rice
  • Meatballs
  • Tomato sauce
  • Beef or ham bouillon

Directions:
  • Carefully remove cabbage leaves from head
  • Steam cabbage leaves
  • Partially cook rice
  • Fill cabbage with rice and precooked meatballs
  • Fold cabbage like a burrito
  • Place in baking pan
  • Cover with sauce and additional water
  • Bake for 30 minutes

Serve with garlic bread and a green vegetable
Enjoy!
