Do you have a source for egg free egg roll wrappers? I bought a pasta machine from my mom to make my own. I hope it works we miss egg rolls!

Debra, I use rice papers, since we need a gluten-free option at our house. They work quite well --- I buy them at the Asian market --- soak them in warm water,and then use the to wrap. Let me know if you come up with a homemade version of egg roll pasta wraps.
