Turkey-Spinach Crispy Baked Egg Rolls

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 2 cups fresh baby spinach, chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 package egg roll wrappers
• 1 egg, beaten

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring often, until turkey is no longer pink, about 8-10 minutes.
3. Add the spinach, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, cumin, and red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring often.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese.
5. Place one egg roll wrapper on a work surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the turkey-spinach mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold the corner closest to you over the filling and press to seal. Fold in the sides of the wrapper and roll up, pressing to seal.
6. Brush the top with the beaten egg and place on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
7. Bake for 10 minutes, until golden brown.
8. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
