Ingredients
Avocado Egg Rolls:
4 ripe avocados, peeled and mashed
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 egg roll wrappers

Instructions
Prepare the filling. In a bowl, combine mashed avocados, sun-dried tomatoes, green onions, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Roll. Place about 2 tablespoons of the avocado mixture in the center of each egg roll wrapper. Fold in the sides and roll tightly, sealing the edges with a little water.
Heat oil. Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat.
Fry. Fry the egg rolls for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Make dipping sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, and lime juice.
Serve. Drain egg rolls on paper towels and serve with the dipping sauce.
Notes
Keep them crispy: Serve immediately for the best crunch.
Make it spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the avocado mixture.
