In a large bowl, combine black beans, corn, pepper, tomatoes, onion, cooked chicken, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder and cheese.
Open egg roll wrappers; place a moist rag over the wrappers to keep them from drying out.
Grab a wrapper; place it on the counter with one corner pointing towards you. Place a heaping spoonful of mixture on the egg roll wrapper. Take the wrapper end that is pointing towards you and fold it over the filling mixture. Fold in the sides of the wrapper, and then continue rolling the wrapper tightly all the way to the end. Brush ends of the wrapper with a little bit of water to help it stick together.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, drizzle in 2-3 T. oil. When oil is hot, place a few egg rolls at a time into the pan. Continually rotate them in the pan so all sides are toasted, being careful to not burn them. When toasted, place egg rolls on a paper towel to drain and dry.
Dipping sauce:
Blend all sauce ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
*They may be deep fried, but pan frying them works well.
Makes 12-15.
