Egg Roll in a Bowl is a quick and easy low-carb dinner made with ground chicken, pork or turkey, coleslaw mix, more veggies and Asian sauce. Everything cooks in one pan, in just 15 minutes.

This dish is simple and quick to make, just like my Chicken Lettuce Wraps and Cauliflower Fried Rice.

Thanks to the convenience of coleslaw mix, you save on prep time. You can also use fresh shredded cabbage and carrots. Don't forget the mushrooms!

Freezing

The Egg Roll in a Bowl is perfect for making ahead and freezing. It's a great healthy dish for busy days! Simply divide the mixture into servings and freeze in ziploc bags. Keep in freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw it out in microwave within minutes or let sit in the fridge until it's ready to be heated up. You may need to add a little bit of water to the mixture.
