Instructions
  1. Prepare the Chili: In a large pot, brown the Mexican chorizo over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease. Add the Yellow onion and Garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the Fire-roasted diced tomatoes, Black beans, Pinto beans, Chili powder, Smoked paprika, Cayenne pepper, Salt, and Pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Prepare the Macaroni and Cheese: Cook the Cavatappi pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  4. In the same pot, melt the Butter over medium heat. Whisk in the All-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, creating a roux.
  5. Gradually whisk in the Whole milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened. Reduce heat to low.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the Sharp cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese until melted and smooth. Season with Salt and Pepper.
  7. Combine the Chili and Macaroni and Cheese: Add the cooked macaroni and cheese to the chili and stir to combine.
  8. Prepare the Chipotle Crema: In a small bowl, combine the Sour cream, minced Chipotle pepper, Adobo sauce, and Lime juice. Stir well.
  9. Assemble the Egg Rolls: Place about 1/4 cup of the chili mac mixture onto each Egg roll wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten Egg.
  10. Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
  11. Fry the Egg Rolls: Heat about 1 inch of Vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  12. Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels. Serve with Chipotle Crema.
