  • Place a single egg roll wrapper onto a flat work surface in a diamond position
  • Add 3 tablespoons of filling towards the top of the wrapper

  • Place the rolled enchilada egg rolls onto a parchment lined baking sheet
  • Lightly brush with olive oil
  • Bake at 425 degrees for 12 minutes on the first side and then flip and bake for an additional 10 minutes or so on the other side
  • While the enchilada egg rolls are baking, heat the remaining enchilada sauce
  • Once they are golden brown, transfer the baking sheet onto a heat proof surface
  • Serve warm with the warm enchilada sauce and some cilantro lime crema and garnish with lime wedges
