  • Lisandro Wolf

    These egg rolls are amazing! My family loved them. I added a little bit of diced red bell pepper to the filling for extra flavor and color.

  • Garry Wolf

    I really liked these, but my kids thought they were too spicy. I'll reduce the amount of cumin next time.

  • Hyman Kunze

    The filling is delicious, but I had some trouble getting the egg rolls to seal properly. Next time, I'll try using a little egg wash instead of just water.

  • Isobel Lemke

    Be careful not to overfill the egg rolls, or they will burst open during frying. I learned that the hard way!

  • Kian Gusikowski

    These are so easy to make and taste fantastic! I will definitely be making them again. I served them with a homemade avocado ranch dressing.

  • Carroll Ebert

    I made these for a party, and they were a huge hit! Everyone raved about them. I used pepper jack cheese for a little extra heat.

  • Houston Breitenberg

    I love the Southwestern flavors in these egg rolls! They're perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal.

  • Zion Littel

    These were a bit bland for my taste. Next time, I'll add some more spices, like chili powder and cumin.

  • Rex Miller

    I baked these instead of frying, and they still turned out great! They were a little less crispy, but much healthier.

  • Hildegard Kilback

    This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times, and it always turns out perfectly.
