I just used shrimp in these and omitted the pork. The filling was fabulous! I cheated and used a bag of coleslaw mix rather than shredding my own cabbage. I thought the seasonings were perfect and the cooking method gave the filling just the right consistency. My kids thought they were fabulous baked. I cooked them at 425 for 12 minutes for the first batch. The second batch I cooked about 14 minutes - turning after 7 minutes. I personally missed the light crispness that frying gives the egg rolls. They ARE healthier, easier, etc... this was and since my family enjoyed them I will be making them again. One note - I think 1 tablespoon of pepper must be a mistake. I used less than 1 teaspoon and they had a good bite to them. I think 1 tablespoon would be overpowering. Thanks for sharing!
