Ingredients for Egg Roll in a Bowl
Ground Meat – I use ground pork, ground turkey, or chicken. For a vegetarian version, try scrambled eggs or tofu.
Vegetables – Pre-made coleslaw mix or broccoli slaw makes it easy, but you can shred your own cabbage as well. To add more to the mix, grated carrots, cauliflower rice, and finely chopped broccoli are all great options.
Flavors – Fresh minced garlic and ginger add great flavor. If you don’t have minced garlic, use 1 teaspoon of garlic powder in place. Replace regular or low-sodium soy sauce with coconut aminos or tamari if needed.
How to Make an Egg Roll in a Bowl
- Brown ground meat and drain fat per the recipe below.
- Add the whites of the green onions, ginger, garlic, and coleslaw mix and saute until slaw is tender.
- Mix in soy sauce and sesame oil. Garnish with cilantro, green onions, and sesame seeds, and serve hot.
Serving & Storage
Serve egg roll in a bowl as it is or over Instant Pot rice, ramen noodles, or even low-carb zoodles. A crispy, cold side of easy Asian slaw or a side of sesame ginger snap peas are the perfect sides to this tasty dish.
Keep leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
