- Lay out the egg roll wrappers and place about 2 tablespoons of the crab mixture in the center of each wrapper.
- Brush the edges with beaten egg, fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal.

Notes
Use imitation crab if preferred for a more budget-friendly option.
Finely diced bell pepper adds extra crunch and color.
Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15–20 minutes as a healthier alternative.
Filling can be made ahead and refrigerated for convenience.
Freeze before cooking for up to 2 months for quick future meals.
