Egg Rolls

• Wrap the tortillas in a moist cloth and microwave on high temperature in 1/2 minute bursts until hot.
• Spoon approximately one-sixth of the mixture into the center of a tortilla. Don't stuff tortillas too full.
• Fold in the ends and then roll the tortilla over the mixture. Roll the tortilla very tight, then pierce with a toothpick to hold together.
• Arrange the wraps on a plate, cover the plate with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, overnight if possible.
• Preheat 4 - 6 cups of oil to 375°F.
• Deep fry the wraps in the hot oil until browned and remove to paper towels or a rack to drain for about 2 minutes.
• Carefully remove toothpicks.
• Slice each egg roll diagonally lengthwise and arrange on a plate covered with lettuce leaves around a small bowl of the Avocado Lime Dipping Sauce or ranch dressing.
