Tonight after seeing many similar pinterest post on cheeseburger eggrolls, we decided to try our hand at it. Of course none of the recipes that I came across seemed to fit our needs so I did some tweaking for healthier substitute. The results we amazing and pleasantly surprising! I think I finally came up with a dinner menu that even my instant plate clearer can't finish (bonus points for me)!
Bacon Cheeseburger Eggrolls and Magic Sauce
Ingredients:
1/2 package of turkey bacon
1 pound ground turkey
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pack of eggrolls
1/2 red onion
1 1/2 cup mushrooms
1 package of reduced fat cheese (we used cheddar)
Mrs. Dash Steak seasoning
Sesame seeds to top
For the Sauce:
2/3 cup thousand island salad dressing
1/3 cup french dressing
First cook turkey bacon in a skillet and chop into 1/2 inch pieces. Set these aside. Brown ground turkey and ground beef mixing well while browning in the same skillet. Drain off grease when done cooking. Add finely sliced red onion and Mrs. Dash Steak seasoning to taste into the skillet with the brown meat. Cook until onion slices are tender. Add chopped mushrooms into the the skillet cooking for about 3 minutes on medium heat and remove skillet from the heat and set aside.
Next place eggroll wrapper down on a clean plastic mat or cutting board. Get a small bowl of water to work with and have it easily accessible to use when wrapping up the eggroll. Place about two spoon fulls of the meat mixture in the middle of the eggroll wrapper. Next place a few cut pieces of turkey bacon on top of the meat mixture. Then sprinkle with cheese. Now wrap the eggroll as in the picture below using water from the bowl on your fingertips to seal the wrapper up as you fold. Place finished eggrolls on a lined greased baking sheet. When the whole baking sheet is filled (or you are finished making eggrolls) moisten the tops of the eggrolls and sprinkle with sesame seeds on the top.
Bake the eggrolls on 375 until the wrappers are golden brown. This takes about 25 minutes but watch because all ovens bake a little differently.
While baking your eggrolls it's time to make the magic sauce. Mix the thousand island salad dressing and the french salad dressing until well blended and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
We served our eggrolls with some baked sweet potato fries since we were already heating up the oven. We really enjoyed this meal and are very excited to eat it again.
