As Donkey says in the Shrek Movies, “Who doesn’t like a parfait?” Well, I feel the same way about egg rolls. Who doesn’t like an egg roll? But being a Type 1 diabetic, egg rolls, unfortunately, don’t like me very much. Too many carbs. I can still have the great taste of egg rolls, however, because of the egg roll bowl. It’s all the good tastes of the egg roll without all the carbs of the shell. This recipe for egg roll bowls takes just minutes to prepare and is pretty darn delicious. You’re welcome.
Ingredients For Egg Roll Bowls
- 2 Tablespoons Sesame Oil
- 2-3 Cloves Minced Garlic
- 2 Tablespoons Minced Fresh Ginger
- 1 Pound Ground Pork (or alternatively, ground chicken, if you don’t do pork)
- 1 Small Onion Chopped
- 1 Bag Shredded Cole Slaw Mix (Cabbage and Carrots)
- 1/4 Cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
- 1-2 Tablespoons Sriracha
- Sliced Green Onions and Sesame Seeds (For Topping)
The How To For Egg Roll Bowls
This recipe comes together in a snap and you only need one pan!
- Heat oil over medium heat in a large frying pan
- Add ginger and garlic and saute until fragrant (1-2 minutes)
- Add pork and cook until no longer pink (Same for chicken, if you’re using that)
- Add chopped onion and bag of shredded cole slaw mix over the meat and stir to combine
- Add soy sauce and sriracha (you can add more sriracha to taste at the end)
- Stir to combine
- Cook until the cabbage is tender (5-7 minutes)
- Place in individual bowls and top with sliced green onions and sesame seeds

Just A Note: You can also spoon over steamed rice if you’re not counting your carbs (I am completely jealous of this alternative, by the way. LOL). For other easy recipes, check out my previous posts, including: Easy Baked Stuffed Shrimp and Easy Frittata Recipe.
And, as always, remember thrift and consignment shops, like Consignments Ltd., if you’re missing any of those cooking essentials needed to make your next great recipe. These shops are full of kitchen items and inventory is replenished continuously.
Have a lovely Sunday, my friends. Marianne
