filling. You will start by making fillings. everything Is in one Pan. Yes, there is only one pan. Before you wrap the chicken and vegetables into the tortillas, you want to cook them so that the excess water evaporates without leaving a mess. Literally.

roll. Then, roll the filling into the tortilla. I mixed whole wheat and regular flour tortillas, and I can’t tell the difference between the two. I doubt your kids can do it too. Make sure that when you roll the eggs, they are tight and the ends are well stuffed and comfortable.

bake. There are two options for omelet:

1. Add ½ cup of oil to the frying pan and fry.
2. Spray or brush them with oil and bake them on a lined baking sheet until golden brown and crispy.

Both of these methods are good choices. The first one is definitely messier and fussy, but much faster. The second is more time-consuming, but it is also a “forget after setting” method. I personally like this method.

Serve. Serve the egg rolls with sour cream, your favorite salsa or some creamy guacamole. No matter how you serve them, these southwestern egg rolls are sure to be a huge hit. We can’t get enough of them!
