Skinny Buffalo Rolls

Let me start off by saying that I will NOT win any awards for my ability to wrap an egg roll wrapper.   I made a hot mess.   However, despite the fact that this didn't result in the most beautiful recipe ever, it sure was delicious.     I got the original recipe from canyoustayfordinner, but I did make a minor change.  

1 can of chunk white meat chicken, 12.5 oz (I love the canned chicken for quick meals!)
Moore's hot sauce, 4 TBS.
Broccoli slaw, 3 oz.
6 egg roll wrappers
Wishbone Light Blue Cheese Dressing (for dipping)

Mix the chicken and the hot sauce together.    


Put 1/6 of the mixture onto a wrapper.   Top with a small amount of broccoli slaw.    Here is where you are on your own.   I am NOT a professional egg roll wrapper!   The first three I made had a bit too much filling.    The other three were more reasonable, but wrapping them was still hard for me.   The best advice I can give you is to put some water on your finger tips and moisten the edges of the wrapper.   This helps it seal and stay together.




Spray each roll with non-stick cooking spray and bake at 350 until golden brown.

The nutritional information does not include the blue cheese dressing.   Personally, I loved these.   I made the serving size 3 wraps, because they are kind of addicting!  However, one roll is a perfect snack, and at right around 100 calories, you really can't go wrong!


The broccoli slaw as part of the filling cools off the heat from the chicken.   The slaw softens during the cooking process, and it just adds a nice flavor.    The end result is a satisfying meal or snack that definitely will curb any craving you have for buffalo wings.

Right now I have a bunch of leftover egg roll wrappers and broccoli slaw, so I guess I'd better think of something to make with them so they don't go bad!
