Thank you Guy Fieri!

I don't know why, but I don't usually find myself watching any of Guy Fieri's shows...Food Network or Minute to Win It.  I really don't know why.  I always love his recipes and if I do land on Minute to Win It, I am sucked in for sure!  Maybe he's just too cool.  Maybe it's his crazy hair and arm band.  Anyhoo, a while back he was cooking with his son...so cute!  He was talking about how he hates to make mozzarella sticks because they break open as they cook.  I hate to make them because it feels kind of good to say I don't make a habit out of frying cheese.  Well, so much for that.  He asked me if I had a need for fried cheese.  I wanted to say no but my heart said yes.  Then, he pulled out this winner from his back pocket and I had to try it. 

Heat canola oil to about 375 degrees.  Since I don't have a cooking thermometer, I just kept dropping stuff in it until it bubbled...oober scientific

While the oil was heating, I assembled a couple mozzy-sticks.  I laid out an egg roll wrap and placed three slices of pepperoni and half of an old-school Polly-O String Cheese in the middle.  Was the pepperoni necessary?  No.  Did I add it anyway?  Yes.  Did I mention this is in no way a healthy snack? 

DISCLAIMER:  This is an extreeemely unhealthy snack

Then, just as the package instructed, I folded over one half of the wrap, then folded in both edges, and rolled until I had a mozzy-egg roll.  I sealed it with some egg-wash.

Then, I dredged the mozzy-egg-roll in the egg-wash and I rolled it in some Italian breadcrumbs. 

When the oil was ready, I dropped them in and oh-my-good-ness!  

 Within seconds, I had the most beautiful mozzy-sticks I've ever seen!  This is a must-try!   Don't forget the spicy dipping sauce!
