Instructions

Add dipping sauce ingredients in a bowl, mix to combine well & set aside.

Sautée diced onions & bell peppers in a skillet for 3-5 minutes over medium/high heat until tender.

Add ground chuck to skillet & cook down until crumbly and browned, about 8-10 minutes.

Drain excess fat from skillet & continue cooking.

Add already measured seasoning blend to browned meat, stirring to combine.

Add slices of American cheese on top of seasoned meat & cover with a lid to melt.

Once cheese is melted add diced pickles & stir to combine all ingredients.

On a flat surface lay out egg roll wrapper on top of sheet of wax paper to keep from sticking.

Add 2 tablespoons shredded colby jack cheese to center of wrapper.

Add 3 tablespoons of cooked meat filling on top of cheese.

Add additional 2 tablespoons shredded colby/jack cheese on top of meat filling.

To roll, wet all edges of wrapper then fold 2 opposite corners of wrapper in over the filling.

Fold 1 corner of wrapper over the already 2 folded edges then begin to carefully roll wrapper with filling until the last remaining edge seals the egg roll.

Repeat for remaining filling & wrappers.

Fry egg rolls in 350 degree F oil for 4-6 minutes, or until crispy & golden brown.

Cut egg rolls in half on diagonal with a serrated knife.

Serve with dipping sauce & enjoy!

Recipe Pro Tips:

• Ensure a secure seal by applying water to all edges of the egg roll wrapper before folding, preventing any filling from escaping during frying.

• Allow the cheese to melt completely into the meat mixture, ensuring a gooey and flavorful interior for the egg rolls.

• Maintain consistent oil temperature during frying to achieve a crispy and golden-brown exterior without overcooking the delicate egg roll wrappers.
