Yes, it is definitely a low-carb meal solution. However, one thing to consider is the amount of sugar that is in the hoisin sauce. You can easily omit that part of the recipe if you want to keep it even lower in carbs.

Egg Roll in a Bowl Ingredients

This easy, one-skillet meal includes the following:

• Ground Beef: Ground pork is traditionally used in egg rolls but I used ground beef in order to make it a bit healthier.
• Carrots: Shred this veggie before cooking. It adds colors and a nice crunch.
• Cabbage: Use a premade mix for an even quicker meal.
• Three Pepper Blend: This is my personal addition for added spice, flavor and color.
• Hoison Sauce: This thick, sweet and salty sauce brings all the other flavors together.
• Sesame Seeds: I use this to garnish.

Do you put eggs in egg roll in a bowl?

Traditionally, egg rolls do not contain eggs. However, the egg roll wrapper contains egg. I did not include eggs in this recipe but finishing this dish with a cooked egg would be a tasty, protein-filled addition!

How to make the recipe:

One of the best parts about this dish- it is super easy and quick to make.

First you cook the ground beef and frozen pepper trio. Once cooked through, drain excess grease and add the meat back to the skillet.

Next, add thinly sliced cabbage and carrots to the same skillet.

Cook cabbage down until it is soft and appears almost translucent, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Add seasonings, ginger, garlic, and hoisin sauce, and mix well. Enjoy this egg roll in a bowl as a side dish, or eat it as a main meal!

Does egg roll in a bowl reheat well?

Yes! Egg roll in a bowl reheats well so it is perfect for leftovers. Ideally, reheat leftovers in the microwave or in a skillet or wok.
