Like the filling of an egg roll, maximized, and made into a meal, this easy weeknight dinner features coleslaw mix, chopped veggies, ground pork and the perfect seasonings for a savory low carb meal you’ll want to eat on repeat.
If you’re looking for a low carb meal that still feels like a treat, this is it. More than just meat, Egg Roll in a Bowl serves up a ton of nutrient-rich veggies all dressed in a savory Asian-inspired sauce that is perfect for a quick and easy dinner.
I serve mine with a super simple sriracha mayo, because why wouldn’t I??
For the meat, I went the traditional pork route, but I’m sure ground chicken could be subbed in as well. For my taste, I prefer to do about 10 to 12 ounces of the ground meat and freeze the leftover bit, but if you’re a meat lover, feel free to add the whole pound.
A few other optional substitutions you can make are for the sauces. If you’re avoiding soy, coconut aminos are a good option. You can also sub in another hot sauce like Frank’s Red Hot for the sriracha.
