This eggroll in a bowl is a perfect, quick, 15 minute weeknight meal that the whole family will love. It tastes just like an egg roll but there is no wrapper!
Low Carb Dinner Idea
Dinner doesn’t get much easier than this one pan, 15 minute meal. Leave off the won ton strips and it is Keto friendly and low carb. There is no frying involved like there is with an egg roll. It has all the classic egg roll flavors such as ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil but is so much easier to make.
Ingredients Needed
- Meat. I like to use ground turkey or ground chicken but you could also use hamburger or ground sausage if you prefer.
- Veggies. Use a pre packaged coleslaw or you could slice your own cabbage. I also added in some shredded carrot and you could also use broccoli slaw if you like. Diced onion is also used.
- Seasoning. A combination of soy sauce, sesame oil, minced ginger, garlic, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar.
- Garnish. I love a combination of won ton strips and sesame seeds. (Leave off the strips if going low carb or keto)
Tips from Leigh Anne
- Make it Keto: Use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce and leave out the sugar. Also, leave off the won ton strips
- Make it Gluten Free. Replace the soy sauce with Tamari or coconut aminos.
- Make it Vegan. Use a plant based meat and leave out the sugar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use something other than pork?
You can also use ground turkey, chicken, hamburger or even sausage if you prefer.
Can I make this ahead?
This meal is so quick to make, only about 15 minutes. If you need to make it ahead go ahead and cook your meat and add in seasoning. Reheat right before serving and add in your cabbage and carrots so they don’t get too soggy. you want a slight crunch to them.
It simply doesn’t get much easier than this meal and only one pan recipe! Not only is it quick and easy, it’s a complete meal all in one. You’ve got your protein, your veggies and a little starch if you add in the won ton strips. Won Ton Strips are usually found in the produce section of the store.
