Spring Rolls....that's what I make with holiday leftovers!

Oh the times of week long turkey or ham sandwich left overs, I have a fond memory but no desire to go there.  After a great Ham Dinner for Easter, I wanted to do something fun and different with our left overs.

We made SPRING ROLLS!

I was excited!  I took the Ginger Princess to the store to get vegetables.  She chose broccoli and a green pepper...it must have been "green day" for her.

I employed my handy dandy electric food processor and ground up my left over ham, some onion, green pepper and my steamed broccoli.

Then I created my own sauce:  I used an equal parts ratio for the following items:
Soy sauce
Sesame oil
Lemon Juice
Dijon Mustard

Then I added Siracha to taste :)

I mixed the sauce in to my meat and veggie mixture, 

covered and refrigerated a few hours to let the flavors mingle.

* This is a great way to prep items in the morning or night before and just do assembly and baking right before you plan to eat.


I preheated my oven to 450 degrees and then began wrapping my spring rolls.  Set a shallow bowl with water in it near your work space, as you will need this to seal your spring rolls.  Use a non greased baking sheet with parchment paper.

1. Lay your spring roll/egg roll wrappers at an angle and fill the inside (roughly 2 tablespoons of mixture)

2. Fold the bottom side up to the top corner and then slide down tightly to your mixture.

3. Fold your outside edges in tight to the center, once you have folded as seen below, use your finger tips and dip them in the small bowl of water.  Brush the water across the top edges and then roll the bottom of the Spring Roll up to the top.

4. Place on your cooking sheet

5. Lightly brush olive oil over the tops of the Spring rolls, place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes on each side.

 

 

 

I made a quick soy and siracha drizzle for mine.

 

1 spring roll is approximately 115 calories :)  And they were delicious!  ~Happy Husband Approved~
