Ingredients

Ingredients:

1/2 cup pepperoni diced
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
3 slices provolone cheese cut into small pieces
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese plus more for garnish, if desired
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper optional
1/4 cup pizza sauce plus more for dipping
1 egg beaten
12 egg roll wrappers
oil for frying

Instructions

Combine pepperoni, mozzarella, provolone, parmesan, oregano, basil, crushed red pepper (if using) together in a bowl. Mix well.
Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Place 2 tablespoons of the filling 1 inch from the bottom of the wrapper. Spoon 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce on top.
Working away from you, fold the wrapper over the filling. Next fold in both sides. Dip a pastry brush into the egg and brush the edges. Continue rolling to seal completely. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers. Repeat until all filling is used. This should make 10 - 12 egg rolls.
Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees. Cook egg rolls, in batches if necessary, until golden brown. About 2 minutes. Repeat until all egg rolls are fried.
Sprinkle with a little more grated parmesan cheese and dried oregano. Serve with hot pizza sauce.

Notes

You can freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet. Then place in freezer bags.

If you fill these with veggies, I highly recommend sautéing the vegetables before hand. Otherwise the water that they release while cooking can make your egg rolls soggy.
