Very very good. I made these with ground pork and purchased egg roll wrappers. My family loved them.

I love these! They are so easy and the sauce is great. I shredded some zucchini and carrot and chopped some red bell pepper to add to the mix, can't say it made it different but it was quite tasty. Thank you!
