Inside Out Egg Rolls

Options
Have you ever tried this? It is so good! I added in some minced Canadian Bacon and chopped cooked shrimp, a can of bean sprouts and some slivered water chestnuts, along with a small handful of frozen baby peas. You can use any leftover meat or poultry with it. It's good with some ground pork and shrimp as well. I just chop up my own cabbage - you can use regular old green cabbage or Chinese cabbage, or the coleslaw mix.

Inside-Out Eggroll Casserole
Found on Weight Watcher's Message Board (This is a Core recipe.)

1 bag cole-slaw mix (cabbage, carrots, etc. - or you can chop your own)
1 T canola oil
Soy sauce, to taste
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. ginger powder
1/2 tsp. Chinese five-spice powder (or allspice - works just as well)
Salt and pepper to taste
Add-ins of your choice: Cooked tofu or other meat and your choice of canned, drained water chestnuts, snow peas, canned hearts of palm, canned bamboo shoots, etc.

1. Saute slaw mix in canola oil until it cooks down.
2. Add soy sauce and spices; saute a bit longer.
3. Throw in your choice of add-ins. (I added snow peas and chopped canadian bacon.)* Saute until you're happy with consistency; add more soy sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm!

    Ditto. And since my diet prohibits bread and white rice I have really been jonesing for that chinese taste. And I was in the store yesterday looking at those little frozen suckers thinking "if only they didn't have that fried crap on the outside" I am gonna copy and paste this one now. Thanks

    Ok, tried them today. Pretty good except it was missing the 2 key ingredients for egg rolls... cinnamon, and peanut butter. Granted the peanut butter will add a bit more calorie wise, but I don't see how you can do w/o it. I made mine with a bit of leftover chicken and it turned out really well. Deffinatly would try again. Thanks for posting.
