Make the dip and refrigerate for at least 2 hours prior to serving. The flavor develops the longer it sits, and the vinegar maintains the green color of the avocado.

1/4 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 tablespoons pickled jalapeños, diced

Steps
Preheat your Traeger Wood-Fired Grill (lid closed) or oven to 400℉ (We used Traeger Signature Blend Hardwood Pellets)
1. Add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil into a large sauté pan. Bring to medium-high heat. Add the red pepper, green onions, salt, and pepper. Cook for 4 minutes.
2. Add the black beans, corn, chopped spinach, jalapeños, parsley, cumin, and chili powder. Cook for 3 minutes.
3. Lower the heat to medium. Add the shredded chicken and mix to combine. Add the cheese and turn off the heat. Continue mixing until the cheese has melted.
4. Fill each tortilla with 2 tablespoons of the filling. Fold in the ends and roll over the tortilla to seal in the filling. Use a toothpick in the center of each to secure the egg roll.
5. Lightly brush the egg rolls with olive oil and place them directly on the grill. If using the oven, place them on a sheet pan. Cook for 10 minutes, flip and cook another 10 minutes.
6. Allow the egg rolls to cool a few minutes before slicing diagonally and serving with the chilled Avocado Ranch Dip!
