Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl

This keto egg roll in a bowl is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional egg rolls.

It takes the flavor profile of Chinese food and turns it into a low-carb meal the whole family can enjoy.

It’s a recipe that incorporates the cabbage filling that is similar to a traditional egg roll minus the egg roll wrapper that’s packed with carbs and gluten.

Traditional egg rolls have nothing on this deconstructed keto egg roll. Rather than Chinese takeout with loads of carbs, a serving of this recipe has only 7.2 net carbs.

The beauty of this recipe is how easy it is to bring dinner to the table. It takes 30 minutes or less to make, making it a great meal prep recipe for busy weeknights.

Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl

Our recipe calls for lean ground beef, garlic, onions, ginger, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, shredded cabbage, sesame oil, sriracha sauce, and green onions.

These ingredients are all low in carbs and high in flavor, making this dish a great option for those who are looking for a healthy and tasty meal.

Plus, it’s a recipe that can be customized to your family’s needs, like swapping the soy sauce for liquid coconut aminos for a gluten-free option and leaving out the sriracha sauce so that children can also enjoy it.

Although an Asian egg roll is traditionally served as an appetizer, we made this into a complete meal so that those who are following a low-carb or keto diet or anyone who wants to enjoy a flavorful and satisfying meal can do so simply.

It’s the quickest keto-friendly recipe you can make with stir-fry flair. This low-carb egg roll in a bowl may be low in carbs compared to the egg rolls from your favorite Chinese restaurant, but it’ll still be packed with Asian flavors.

You’re welcome!

How To Make Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl

Browning The Beef And Adding Vegetables

To start, heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add one pound of lean ground beef and brown until it’s almost cooked through, about 5 minutes. Then, add one cup of finely chopped onions, three minced garlic cloves, and minced ginger, and saute for about 2 minutes.

Next, add two tablespoons of water, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sriracha sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, Chinese five spice, salt, and pepper.

Adding The Sauce And Cabbage

Stir well and then add the shredded cabbage to the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low for about 10 minutes.

Feel free to add the other two tablespoons of water if you need more moisture to cook down the cabbage.

During this time, the cabbage will soften and absorb the flavors from the sauce. Stir occasionally to make sure everything is cooking evenly.

After 10 minutes, it’s time to add the finishing touches. Fold in the chopped green onions and one teaspoon of toasted sesame oil. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

Finishing And Serving

Before serving, sprinkle one tablespoon of sesame seeds on top for garnish (optional). This will add a nice crunch and nutty flavor to the dish.

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. However, it’s not recommended to freeze the leftovers as it can make the cabbage soggy.

If you plan to store the leftovers, it is essential to transfer them to an airtight container once they have cooled to room temperature. This can help prevent bacteria growth and keep the dish fresh for longer.

When reheating the leftovers, it is best to use a microwave-safe container and cover it with a lid or microwave-safe wrap. Reheat the dish in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or until it is heated through. Stir the dish halfway through the reheating process to ensure that it is heated evenly.

It is important to note that the texture of the dish may change slightly after it has been refrigerated and reheated. However, the flavor should remain the same and it can still be enjoyed as a delicious and healthy meal option.

Recipe Variations

For a twist on this recipe, swap the ground beef for ground pork, ground turkey, or ground chicken for other protein variations.

Add more vegetables such as broccoli florets, carrots, or zucchini chopped into small pieces.
