Loaded Mashed Potato Egg Rolls. Crispy egg rolls stuffed with creamy loaded mashed potatoes and gooey cheese! This may be my favorite egg roll recipe yet!
Ingredients
2 cups prepared (or leftover mashed potatoes)
¼ cup bacon bits or crumbled cooked bacon
2 green onions (thinly sliced)
1 egg
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
8 sticks of cheese (approx. 3″ long by ¼″ square)
8-10 Egg Roll Wrappers
Method
1
Combine cooled mashed potatoes, bacon bits, green onions, egg, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper in a large bowl. Mix until well combined.
2
Wrap about 3 tablespoons of the mashed potato mixture around each stick of cheese trying to ensure it is completely covered (this helps prevent leaks).
3
Lay each egg roll wrapper out with a corner pointing towards you. Place your mashed potato and cheese filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold in the sides and roll the wrapper tightly. Use a dab of water to secure the tip of the wrapper. (If you don’t know how to roll an egg roll it usually shows on the package).
4
Note: It is important to make sure the sides of the wrapper are tucked in holding the ingredients in. If they leak, it can cause splattering.
5
Preheat oil to 350°F. Fry each egg roll for about 4-5 minutes or until browned and crispy.
