These Egg Roll Bowls are my new go-to for quick lunches, weeknight dinners, and meal prep. It is like a deconstructed egg roll over rice. The pork, vegetables, and sauce cook together in a pan while the rice cooks and it all reheats great in the microwave the next day! You can enjoy a filling dish of pork, veggies, and a delicious sauce over rice anytime.
Ingredients in an Egg Roll Bowl
Ground Pork – Ground pork is usually made from pork shoulder. I like to use lean ground pork for this recipe. Coleslaw Mix – Get a mix that has green cabbage, red cabbage, and matchstick carrots. You can also use broccoli slaw. If you have red and green cabbage and carrots on hand, then chop them very finely. Green Onion – You will use the white parts and green parts separately. Sauce – The sauce for these egg roll bowls is so yummy! It contains tamari, sweet chili sauce, garlic, ginger, black pepper, and also sesame oil. Spicy Mayo – Spicy mayo makes a great topping for these bowls. Sesame Seeds – I also like to garnish my bowl with a few dashes of sesame seeds. Cooked Rice – Use any rice you like for the base of this recipe.
Substitutions
Use ground turkey, ground beef, or ground chicken in place of pork. For a vegetarian egg roll bowl, use tofu in place of pork. If you don’t have tamari on hand, then use low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos. Tamari is a gluten-free soy sauce alternative. Thinly slice cabbage and carrots instead of using a coleslaw mix. Or, use a broccoli slaw mix.
Add-ins
Add a little rice vinegar or rice wine vinegar to the rice for flavor. Add sriracha or red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little more spice. Bump up the protein with shelled edamame, eggs, or extra meat. Add veggies like mushrooms or bell peppers.
Recipe Tip
Keto Egg Roll Bowl
This is a popular recipe for people eating low-carb or keto. To make this recipe keto, just skip the rice (or use Cauliflower Rice) and the sweet chili sauce. You may need to add a little more tamari sauce to the sauce mixture, to taste. Read Next: 35+ Easy Lunch Recipes
