Egg Roll in a Bowl is a quick and delicious low-carb meal that captures the savory flavors of traditional egg rolls without the wrapper.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground meat (pork, turkey, or beef)
  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 cup grated or julienned carrots
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Shred the green cabbage, grate or julienne the carrots, mince the garlic and ginger, and chop the green onions so all ingredients are ready to use for cooking.
  2. Brown the Ground Meat: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat if desired.
  3. Sauté Aromatics: Add the minced garlic and ginger into the skillet with the cooked meat. Stir frequently for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, ensuring the flavors meld into the meat.
  4. Add Vegetables and Sauce: Stir in the shredded cabbage, carrots, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables become tender but retain some crunch.
  5. Final Touches: Season with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes according to taste. Toss in the chopped green onions just before serving to add freshness and serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can use any ground meat you prefer: pork, turkey, or beef all work well.
  • For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Adjust the spice level by adding more or less red pepper flakes.
  • Drain excess fat after browning the meat for a leaner dish.
  • Serve with cauliflower rice or steamed rice for a complete meal.
