Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 packet taco seasoning
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup sour cream (optional, for filling or dipping)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Egg roll wrappers
Oil for frying
Instructions:
Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat, then add taco seasoning and a splash of water (as per packet instructions). Simmer until thickened.
Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine cooked beef, diced red bell pepper, green onions, and shredded cheese. Let it cool slightly.
Assemble Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper flat. Place 2 tablespoons of filling in the center. Add a small dollop of sour cream if desired. Fold in sides and roll tightly, sealing the edge with a bit of water.
Fry: Heat oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry egg rolls until golden brown and crispy, about 3–4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Serve Hot: Garnish with extra green onions and serve with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.
