Baked Eggrolls from the Spring Garden!

On second Saturdays our 4H garden club comes together in the kitchen to learn basic kitchen skills and how to cook a meal from start to finish. We do our best to use ingredients from our garden. For this recipe we use carrots, cabbage, green onions and radish. The cloverbuds, which are ages 3-5, participate by shredding veggies by hand, measuring, and mixing! The older krewe work as a team to make a meal that we eat at the close of our club meeting. Yum! Here we're going to share with you our latest culinary adventure, baked eggrolls! They're like tiny delicious hand-held pot pies.
