Southwestern Spring Rolls

Some days you just need a good tex-mex spring roll. It just makes life a little more manageable. When all things go hay-wire and you don’t know what to fix for dinner on a rainy weekend you can always count on southwestern spring rolls to pull through. They fix everything.


Tex-Mex food warms me. It makes me smile, a lot. It’s slightly spicy but nothing over the top. Kinda like me. ;)


The combination of black beans and corn go together like milk and cookies. {Or Sonny and Cher.} It’s just meant to be. I used some left over grilled corn and, boy oh boy, did this add some yummy flavor.
