';These little parcels are made with seasoned ground meat sealed in egg roll wrappers; they are then deep fried. Serve with salsa and guacamole if desired, but plain they are a dream. This recipe was handed down from my grandfather to my mom, from her to me, and now I'm passing it on to you.';

INGREDIENTS:





* 3 tablespoons olive oil


* 1 pound ground beef

* 1 green bell pepper, chopped


* 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce


* 1 (16 ounce) package egg roll wrappers

DIRECTIONS:





1. In a large, heavy saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped garlic, onions, and bell pepper; saute until soft.


2. Add meat; cook and stir until browned. Drain off excess fat. Stir in tomato sauce and cilantro. Simmer until cilantro wilts. Remove from heat, and cool until mixture can be handled.
