Egg Rolls
"Another old family favorite. Because these eggrolls are baked, not fried, they aren't as fattening. They are a bit labor intensive so know that ahead of time. All the chopping and filling the eggrolls takes time."

12 eggrolls

- Add soy sauce and cornstarch mixture and stir until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and cool.

i like the idea of baking vs frying. the eggrolls themselves needed some cabbage and shiitake mushrooms, which i added to the second batch. i also used ground pork instead of turkey sausage for more authentic ingredients. very good eggrolls. i served them with bergy's dipping sauce

I live in Omaha NE and am an audiologist at Boys Town National Research Hospital. I love to cook, as does my husband Michael. In the summer, we have a large garden and try to use alot of fresh fruits/veggies in our cooking. We have a 5 year old daughter, Kate and almost 2 year old son Sam and enjoy introducing them to new foods. One of their favorites is fresh pesto smeared on crackers!
