This bacon cheeseburger egg roll recipe is something special. I don’t know why stuffing a crispy, crackly egg roll wrapper with just about anything makes it taste better, but we’re just gonna accept it. Thin sheets of non-doughy egg roll wrappers encase an intensely flavored meat and cheese filling, and it’s literally the best thing to snack on. I promise you, you’re going to love this recipe.
