This is a great way to reduce food waste. We’ve suggested veggies here, but you can use anything you’ve got in your fridge. Yesterday’s leftovers never tasted so good! Serve with sour cream for a hit of creaminess.

 2 Bacon slices, chopped
 ¼ cup Onion, finely chopped
 ¼ cup Red bell pepper, finely chopped
 1 Garlic clove, minced
 ¼ cup Corn, frozen
 ¼ cup Black beans, drained and rinsed
 ½ cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
 1 tbsp Green onion, sliced
 8 Egg roll wrappers
 1 cup Vegetable oil

1

Heat saucepan over medium heat and add 1 tsp (5 mL) vegetable oil. Add bacon and cook while stirring until crispy.

2

Add onions, red peppers and garlic. Cook until onions have softened and stir in corn and black beans.

3

Continue cooking until beans are warmed, remove from heat and let cool. Once cooled, stir in grated cheese and green onions.

4

Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of the filling into each egg roll wrapper and fold into eggroll using water to seal edges.

5

Warm oil in small pot until it reaches 375°F (190°C) and shallow fry egg rolls until golden brown and cheese is melted.

Tips for food selection and storage

When choosing canned foods, look on the nutrition label for ones with less than 15% DV (Daily Value) of sodium. 15% is a lot of a nutrient, and 5% is a little. Rinsing canned beans well before using gets rid of most of the salt!
