Why I Love This Recipe
I love this recipe because it takes simple ingredients—most of which you probably already have—and turns them into something that feels completely new and totally indulgent. It’s the kind of finger food that’s equally at home at game day spreads, holiday tables, or late-night snack attacks.
Plus, frying the egg rolls makes the outside super crispy while keeping the inside creamy, cheesy, and full of bacon goodness. Add a little sour cream or ranch on the side, and you’ve got dipping magic.
📋 Ingredients
- 2 cups mashed potatoes (leftover or fresh)
- 4 slices cooked turkey bacon, chopped
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 10 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Optional: sour cream or ranch dressing, for dipping
🥚 Ingredient Tips & Swaps
- No turkey bacon? Use regular bacon, pancetta, or even chopped sausage.
- Make it spicy: Add a dash of hot sauce or diced jalapeños to the filling.
- Cheese it up: Swap cheddar for pepper jack, mozzarella, or gouda.
- Baked option: Brush egg rolls with oil and bake at 400°F for 15–20 mins until golden.
👨🍳 Directions
1. Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, chopped turkey bacon, shredded cheddar, and green onions. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until fully combined.
2. Assemble the Egg Rolls
Lay one egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling into the center. Fold the bottom corner up, then the sides in, and roll tightly. Seal the top edge with water. Repeat with the rest.
3. Fry the Egg Rolls
Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry egg rolls in batches for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until crispy and golden. Remove and drain on paper towels.
4. Serve and Dip
Serve warm with sour cream, ranch, or your favorite dipping sauce. They’ll go fast—trust me.
🔥 Tips for Maximum Crunch
- Seal the edges tightly so filling doesn’t leak during frying.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan—too many at once can lower the oil temp.
- Drain well: Let them sit on a paper towel-lined tray to keep that shell crisp.
🍽 What to Serve With These Bad Boys
Make it a snack spread or a full comfort feast with these tasty pairings:
- Dorito Casserole – bold and cheesy to match the mayhem
- Sheet Pan Quesadillas – perfect for a crowd
- Crockpot Nacho Dip – scoopable, cheesy, and crowd-pleasing
- Cheesy Hot Dip Sandwich Hack – because more cheese is always right
- Easy Turkey Wings – double down on that turkey flavor
🧊 Storage & Leftovers
- Fridge: Store leftover egg rolls in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Pop in the oven or air fryer to bring back the crisp.
- Freezer tip: Freeze before frying—lay on a sheet tray, freeze solid, then store in a zip-top bag. Fry from frozen, just add an extra minute or two.
