Mini eggrolls with sweet and sour sauce dip are a great way to slip some veggies into their diet, if you can stand the aftermath of the cabbage. You can also set up a platter of sandwiches for the guests to eat at half-time. A flaky croissant with ham and Swiss is a tasty and classic way to dress up your sports party.

Egg rolls

You can make your own egg rolls with these ingredients: 1 pkg. egg roll wraps, 1 tablespoon flour, 4 c. cooked and minced meat of choice, shredded carrots, cabbage, mushrooms, celery or combination of vegetables, shredded onion, dash of garlic powder, mustard, onion powder, ginger, soy sauce

For the Sports party egg rolls, combine all of the filling ingredients in a saucepan. That includes the meat, veggies and seasonings. Sauté until veggies are tender.

In a small bowl or cup mix a paste of one tablespoon water and one tablespoon flour.

Lay an egg roll wrap flat and spoon a small amount of filling into center. Wrap three corners of the egg roll wrap up over the filling, so that they meet at the center of the filling. Spread a small amount of the paste on the inside edge of the fourth corner and wrap that over the other three corners to secure the egg roll. Fill all the egg roll wraps.

Fill a pan with about 2 inches of oil. Heat on medium high. Place three or four egg rolls into the oil and let sit until they are golden on bottom. Roll over and let cook on other side. The egg rolls should be completely cooked in about 2 minutes. Place on paper towels to soak up excess oil.

These tasty egg rolls will definitely be snatched up by your guests at the sports party. Just make sure you have a lot of them on hand and plenty of paper goods to eat from.
