      Hi MJ,

      Lumpia tastes extra good during the holidays. Do you eat yours with vinegar and garlic sauce?

          NICE. What do you usually have in yours? My mom makes two kinds: a ground beef version with green beans, carrots and corn (for the meat eaters) and a veggie version with jicama, carrots and green beans (for me).
