It's a keeper Kim! Made it last week using diced left over chicken breast. Made it mid-week with ground beef (my favourite) and yesterday with ground pork...hummm maybe that was my favourite. LOL The only wonton wraps in the store were stale dated so I went with the eggroll wraps. First time in triangles, second & third time egg roll shaped. I found the later easier to brown. Only other variable was that I used fresh bean sprouts. Keep them coming Kim!

This is great! we love it being asian, its part of our menu, I kindda find it oily though so i tried cooking it on a non stick pan and just sprayed cooking oil the second time i cooked it. Over all my kids say this deserves a 5 star rating still!
