🥣 Dipping Sauce Ideas:

• Ranch or garlic butter

• Steak sauce or sriracha ketchup

📝 Tips:

• Make-ahead: Assemble and freeze uncooked egg rolls for later. Fry or bake directly from frozen (add extra time).

• Want it cheesy? Add Cheez Whiz or American cheese instead of provolone for a more authentic Philly style.

• Like spice? Add some chopped jalapeños to the filling.
