Place sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; caramelize by
stirring often until sugar melts and is golden (about 2 minutes).

Remove from heat; carefully stir in grapefruit juice and 2 tablespoons lime
juice (caramelized sugar will harden and stick to spoon). Place pan over
medium-high heat until caramelized sugar melts. Bring to a boil, and cook 8
minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup. Remove from heat; stir in 1/8 teaspoon
pepper. Set aside.

Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium heat until
hot. Add bok choy and onions. Saute until bok choy wilts. Combine bok choy
mixture, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and next 5 ingredients (lime juice
through crabmeat); stir.

Working with 1 egg roll wrapper at a time (cover remaining wrappers to keep
from drying out), spoon 1/4 cup crabmeat mixture into center of wrapper.
Fold lower right corner over mixture; fold lower left and top right corners
over mixture. Moisten top left corner with egg white; roll up jelly-roll
fashion. Repeat procedure with remaining wrappers, crabmeat mixture, and
egg white.

Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add egg rolls; cook 5 minutes or
until golden, turning frequently.

Arrange 1/2 cup salad greens and 3 grapefruit sections on each of 4 plates;
top each with 2 egg rolls. Drizzle 2 tablespoons caramelized sugar mixture
over each serving; sprinkle each with 1-1/2 teaspoons nuts. Yield: 4
servings.
