Egg

Separate eggroll wrappers and keep moist by placing a damp towel over them.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in skillet then add meat and 1 teaspoon soy sauce. Stir fry on medium-high until nearly done. Add veggies and cover. Continue to cook until veggies are tender and meat is done, stirring occasionally. Completely drain off all liquid.
Scramble 1 egg in a small bowl. Put meat and veggie mix directly in middle of wrapper. Roll one corner up, then tuck the two opposite corners in, then roll to end of last corner.
