If you buy dried tofu sheets, in the refrigerated section of an asian grocery,
those should work. They're rolled out very thin, and look like pastry.

Hi Andrea,
Since I started low-carbing, I no longer use any kind of wrap. Here's what
I put on my plate for dinner:

Unrolled Egg Rolls
Recipe By :Damsel in dis Dress
Serving Size : 10 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : low-carb side dish
stir-fry
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 pound ground pork
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1 dash white pepper
8 cups water
2 1/2 pounds cabbage -- finely shredded
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 pound shrimp, cooked -- finely chopped
1/3 cup green onions -- finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
Mix pork, 1/4 tsp. salt, cornstarch, soy sauce, and white pepper. Cover
and refrigerate about 20 minutes.
Heat water to boiling in a stockpot or dutch oven; add cabbage. Drain;
rinse cabbage in cold water until cold. Drain thoroughly; remove excess
water by squeezing cabbage. (A salad spinner works nicely for this, too)
Heat wok until very hot. Add 2 tbsp. vegetable oil; tilt wok to coat
sides. Add pork; stir-fry 3 minutes, or until pork is no longer pink. Stir
in cabbage, shrimp, green onions, 1/2 tsp. salt, and five-spice powder.
Serve with hot mustard or sweet and sour sauce, if desired.

New food of the week: Ice water. Lots of it.
(The jalapeño peppers are very hot!)

Thanks for the tofu sheet suggestion and the "unrolled eggrolls recipe"!

I also think one could dump the filling in aburage pouches.
