Ingredients
  

For the Cheeseburger Egg Rolls
  • 1 lb lean ground beef 90–93%
  • ½ cup finely diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 tbsp cream cheese softened
  • ¾ cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • 10 egg roll wrappers
  • Olive oil spray for air frying
  • Optional: 2 tbsp diced pickles or 2 strips cooked bacon chopped
For the High-Protein Burger Sauce
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp light mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp relish or finely chopped dill pickles
  • Dash garlic powder and paprika
  • 1 tsp pickle juice optional, for thinning and flavor

Method
 

Cook the filling:
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and diced onion, cooking until the beef is browned and the onion is soft (about 5–6 minutes). Drain any excess grease.
Season it:
  1. Add the garlic, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cook for another minute or two to coat the beef in all the flavors.
Make it creamy:
  1. Remove from heat and stir in the softened cream cheese until melted and evenly combined. Add the shredded cheddar and optional diced pickles or bacon. Mix until the filling is smooth and cheesy. Let cool slightly before wrapping.
Assemble the egg rolls:
  1. Lay one wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you. Add about 2–3 tablespoons of filling to the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a dab of water. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
Air fry:
  1. Lightly spray both sides of the egg rolls with olive oil. Place in a single layer in the air fryer basket (work in batches if needed).
  2. Air fry at 400°F for 8 minutes, flip, spray again, and cook another 4–5 minutes until golden and crisp.
Serve:
  1. Let cool slightly before serving with the high-protein burger sauce for dipping.
