YUMMY!!

Baked Southwestern Egg Rolls

Ingredients:
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (10 oz.) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 (4 oz.) can diced green chiles, drained
4 green onions, chopped
1 tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
¼ tsp. cayenne pepper
1 package egg roll wrappers (about 24 total)

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine everything but the egg roll wrappers.  Mix well to blend.  Lay an egg roll wrapper out on a work surface so that one of the corners is pointing toward you and place ¼ cup of the filling in the center.  Fold the tip closest to you up over the filling, roll a bit, then take the points pointing outward and fold them in toward the center.  Continue rolling into an egg roll shape until a small part of the remaining point is still free.  Dip a finger in water or beaten egg and lightly brush on the edges of the free corner.  Finish rolling and press to seal closed.  Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.


Preheat the oven to 425˚ F.  Lightly oil a baking sheet with cooking spray.  Place the sealed egg rolls on the baking sheet seam side down and spray the tops of the egg rolls with cooking spray.  Bake for about 15 minutes, or until lightly brown, turning halfway through baking.  Serve warm with salsa.

So here's what i decided!!

So as you can see I haven't posted in a long while!!  So here's the game plan, I will post once a week and it will be something related to health. It may be some sort of motivation or simply just a wonderful healthy recipe I've come upon!-- Something new that I'm super excited about is my dad and I have decided to do a "mini" marathon. It's going to be so life changing to surpase what I believe my body is limited to! And I'm SO proud of my dad. Fifty years old and training for a marathon holy cow! It just goes to show that only you can tell youself you can't do something. I understand some people have physical limits but if you show yourself that you can do the thing you think you cannot you may just surprise yourself!
