Guys! This vegetarian, easy & quick dinner prep is seriously going to be a new favorite. I love how easy it is, & honestly, it is so nice that this meal is so cheap! Each week we set a budget for how much we want to spend on groceries. We decide to have 1 meal out & the rest we eat in, so meals that I can find that are meatless, cheap & YUMMY is key.
Now the only frozen corn I have seemed to be able to find at the store is “smoked corn” it provides this dish a more paprika type of taste. So if you want to use regular corn that is perfect, but also know if “smoked corn” is the only one you can find– it will be perfect!
This meal would also be perfect to meal prep for the week. Cook all of them, then keep to reheat for another meal in the week or take in your lunch the next day.
I seriously cannot wait for you all to make these!

I used this recipe to make egg rolls for the first time! I was intimidated to make them, but shouldn’t have been! They were quick, easy, and SO DELICIOUS. We enjoyed these for dinner and are excited to have leftovers for lunch!

I’m excited to make these! Are you able to freeze them?
Hi Lauren!! Yes you can! Freeze the stuffing or freeze them rolled. Then you can take out the day before you plan to make them & then pop them in the oven. I have yet to do them right out of the freezer but will add that timing in when I do! They are truly one of our favorites:)
This recipe is on repeat at our house-everyone absolutely loves them!!!
