Ingredients for Bean N Cheese Stuffed Wrappers

  • Egg Roll Wraps
  • Jalapeno Jack Cheese
  • Monterey Jack Cheese
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons refried beans per wrapper
  • Sunflower Oil

How to Make Bean N Cheese Stuffed Wrappers

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) or prepare oil for frying.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and 1/4 cup chopped green onions.
  3. Lay out spring roll wrappers on a clean surface.
  4. Place 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture in the center of each wrapper.
  5. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of refried beans on top of the cheese.
  6. To roll: Fold in the two side edges of the wrapper towards the center, then moisten the edge with water. Bring up the bottom corner and seal it with water. Roll tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, and seal the final edge with water (imagine rolling a burrito or sealing an envelope).
  7. **To bake:** Brush each wrapper lightly with olive oil and place them seam-down on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. **To fry:** Heat about 1 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the wrappers in the hot oil (test by dropping a small corner – it should sizzle immediately). Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  9. Remove from oven or skillet and let cool slightly before serving. Serve immediately with your favorite salsa.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
