Slice the plant-based bacon into small strips. Cut the red bell pepper into thin julienne strips and finely chop the green onions.
In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cook the plant-based bacon strips until they're crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, sauté the chopped red bell pepper for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened. Add green onions and sauté for another minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Scramble the eggs in the skillet until cooked through. Remove from heat.
Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place a few strips of plant-based bacon, a spoonful of scrambled egg, a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese, and some sautéed vegetables at the bottom third of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and continue rolling tightly to form a roll. Seal the edge with a dab of water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In a clean skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the rolls, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp on all sides, about 4-5 minutes per batch.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve the Vegetarian Bacon Egg Rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
