Variations on a Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl

I made this bowl with ground turkey, but you can easily make it with pork, chicken, or beef too. You can also make this with plant-based ‘meat’ crumbles. To keep it more keto-friendly, use a coleslaw mix with very little (or no!) carrots.

How to Store and Reheat

Once cooked and cooled, store this egg roll in a bowl in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can reheat it on the stovetop or quickly in the microwave. We do not recommend freezing this bowl, as the cabbage will become watery once thawed.

Serving Suggestions

This egg roll in a bowl is perfect to enjoy by itself as a healthy meal. It’s great piled into lettuce wraps too. For a fuller meal, you can serve it with a side of rice or cauliflower rice, or make some veggie lo mein!

Notes from the Test Kitchen

  • If you like a crunch and bite to your cabbage, only cook the mixture for 10 minutes. If you would like the cabbage to be cooked all the way through with no crunch, cook for 15 minutes.
  • For the photos, we garnished the egg roll in a bowl with green onions and sesame seeds for the majority of the pictures. We added Sriracha Mayo on the last couple of photos to add a little bit more color.
