Skinny Baked Vegetarian Egg Rolls with Peanut Sauce

Ingredients
  

Ingredients for Egg Rolls:

  • 2½ cups shredded cabbage
  • 2½ cups broccoli slaw
  • 1 cup snow peas (pea pods) chopped
  • 1 cup carrots, shredded
  • 1 cup scallions, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil or olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons ginger, (from a jar) see shopping tips
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar or seasoned rice vinegar
  • 1½ tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • A little fresh ground black pepper
  • 12 egg roll wrappers, see shopping tips
  • Cooking spray

Ingredients for Sauce:

  • ¼ cup peanut butter, I like natural, chunky, unsalted
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Coat a baking pan with cooking spray. For Air-fryer, preheat to 375 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, combine cabbage, broccoli slaw, snow peas, carrots, and scallions.
  • Heat oil in a large, nonstick pan over medium-high. Add ginger, garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in cabbage mixture, 1½ tablespoons soy sauce, rice vinegar, and black pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until soft-crisp. Chill in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Place 1 egg roll wrapper at a time onto work surface with 1 corner pointing toward you (wrapper should look like a diamond). Spoon ⅓ cup cabbage filling into the center of the wrapper. Fold lower corner of egg roll wrapper overfilling. Fold in corners and roll up jelly-roll fashion. Repeat steps with remaining wrappers and veggie filling.
  • To Bake in Oven: Lightly coat egg rolls with cooking spray and place seam side down on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake for 10 minutes. Turn over and bake 10 minutes more until golden brown on both sides.
  • To Bake in Air-Fryer: Spray with cooking spray, and place in the air fryer in a single layer. Cook until golden brown, 6–8 minutes total. Turn over halfway at 3-4 minutes.
  • To prepare sauce: In a blender add all sauce ingredients and blend until smooth. Taste and add more red pepper flakes, if desired.  Serve sauce on the side with egg rolls. Use ½ tablespoon sauce to dip with each egg roll.
  • Serve at once. To reheat, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place egg rolls on a baking sheet. Place in oven and heat until crisp. Or can be reheated in the air-fryer.
