CHEFELLA'S SWEET & SOUR EGGROLLS
I know that vegetables are good for me, but sometimes I do not like eating them. Then I remembered, every time I eat chinese food, I eat vegetables. I really like the eggrolls from the chinese restaurant, but I know that fried foods are not good for me. So this week I made some good for me eggrolls. For my eggrolls I picked vegetables that I like and I baked the eggrolls so they were better for me. For your eggrolls you can pick the vegetables, meat and sauce that you like knowing that they will be better for you then the eggrolls from the restaurant, and you will get healthy from eating your vegetables.
Enjoy.
