In a large bowl, combine cooked chicken, spinach, black beans, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, corn, and diced jalapeño, if using. Mix well.
Add chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir until evenly seasoned.
Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you (diamond orientation). Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the filling onto the center of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly toward the top corner and seal with a small amount of water along the edge.
Repeat with the remaining egg roll wrappers and filling.
Heat vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully fry 2-3 egg rolls at a time, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy (about 3-4 minutes). Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
While the egg rolls are cooling slightly, prepare the avocado ranch dip. In a small bowl, mash the avocado until smooth.
Stir in ranch dressing, lime juice, and cilantro (if using) until combined. Adjust salt and lime juice to taste, if needed.
Serve the egg rolls warm with the avocado ranch dip on the side.
