Ingredients:

• 12 egg roll wrappers
• 1 cup cubed chicken breast
• 1 cup scallions, diced
• 2 cups cabbage,shredded
• 1/2 cup carrot, shredded
• 2 Tbsp sesame oil
• 2 Tbsp minced ginger
• 1 Tbsp minced garlic
• 2 Tbsp soy sauce (Oyster is best, but I had none, so I subbed!)

Steps:

1. Saute chicken and scallions in sesame oil for 3-5 minutes. Add carrot, cabbage, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce. Reduce to low and simmer, covered for 10 minutes. Turn off heat and let mixture cool (30 minutes).
2. Arrange egg roll wrapper at a diagonal. Add 3 Tbsp. (approximately) of mixture to center. Fold bottom triangle up, sides in (like wrapping a gift!) then seal top edges with water and roll up to meet. Repeat x 12.
3. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet at 400 degrees F for 10-12 minutes. Broil for one minute.
4. Serve alongside stir fry or have more as the main event!

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups cooked ground pork, drained
• 1 cup cooked diced chicken
• 1 cup diced shrimp

• 2 cups minced celery
• 1 head finely shredded cabbage
• 1 cup bean sprouts, diced

Directions:

Blanch celery, cabbage, and green onions in 1 cup boiling water. Add all ingredients together in large skillet and cook until thoroughly mixed and hot. Refrigerate. Fill each egg roll with about 2 tablespoons filling. Wrap envelope style and secure flap with a cornstarch, cold water mixture. Deep fat fry until golden brown. Drain and set hot with sweet and sour sauce or Chinese mustard. Makes about 40 large egg rolls. These may be frozen. Pop thawed egg rolls in 350 degree F oven for 10-15 minutes.
