My result was far different than my expectations so I was disappointed. The recipe mentions 8 eggrolls as a yield (serves 4), but calls for a package of wrappers which has 16-20. I rolled all 20 in my pkg and ended up with normal size egg rolls. I thought they contained way too much spinach and would definitely cut back to one box if I were to make again. Even with "hot" italian sausage the seasonings seemed bland in the mix. I did bake the eggrolls instead of frying, but I normally do so am used to that. I'm glad I tried them and thank you for sharing the recipe!

I would rate these 10 stars if I could! Easy and oh soooooo tasty! I made them today, ate a couple then threw the rest in the freezer for easy meals on work nights. Having these with a ceasar salad would make my tummy very happy. Try these, you'll like them!
