Ingredients

  • Avocado Ranch Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup light mayo
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup chopped scallions
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/8 tsp onion powder
  • 1/8 tsp dried parsley flakes
  • 1/8 tsp dried basil
  • Black pepper
  • Egg Rolls:
  • Cooking spray
  • 8 oz. ground turkey
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tbsp. chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 4.25 oz. can diced green chiles
  • 1/2 cup frozen spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1/4 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
  • 1/4 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 3/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Mexican chili powder
  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 3/4 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese

Directions

  1. In a small blender, combine the ingredients for the avocado ranch sauce and blend until smooth.

  2. Preheat the oven to 400. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

  3. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat and coat it with cooking spray. Add the ground turkey and salt. Cook, using a wooden spoon to break the meat into small pieces as it browns, about 4 minutes. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic and cook, stirring, until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add the green chiles, spinach, corn, black beans, cumin and chili powder, and cook, stirring, until the liquid evaporates, 3-4 minutes.

  4. Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean work surface with a corner facing you. Spoon 1/4 cup of the turkey mixture at the bottom corner and top with 1 tbsp. Jack cheese. Fold the bottom corner over the mixture so that it covers it completely, then roll to the center of the wrapper. Fold the left and right corners into the center to form an envelope. Roll the wrap upward one time, leaving the top corner open. Wet your index finger with a little water and moisten the corner. Fold the corner down to seal the roll. Repeat for all the rolls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Coat each roll with cooking spray.

  5. Bake until the rolls are crisp and golden brown, 6-8 minutes per side.

  6. Serve with the sauce on the side for dipping.
