Perfect Cheesy Taco Egg Rolls are full of ground beef or pork, onions, peppers, salsa, refried beans and of course cheese! Every bite is perfection! They are named perfect for a reason!
This is a variation of an old favorite of ours, Bacon Cheeseburger Egg Rolls. These Taco Egg Rolls can be made as spicy as you want, or need. Any ground meat works great. I love them with a combination of ground beef and ground pork.
Use your favorite taco toppings! You are only limited by your imagination! They are delicious! Awesome as a snack and so quick and easy to create. They can be fried or baked.
You should also take a moment to check out our Perfect Breakfast Egg Rolls and Perfect Bacon Cheeseburger Egg Rolls! Both are delicious and most importantly made without bread!
