    Pork Egg Roll Bowls are an easy one-pan dinner that takes just 15 minutes to cook! Low carb and keto friendly as well. Tastes just like an egg roll without the wrapper. The two main ingredients are just pork sausage (or ground pork) and a bag of coleslaw mix. So simple for a takeout-inspired dinner!

    How To Make Pork Egg Roll Bowls:

    Ingredients You’ll Need for Egg Roll Bowls:

    • Onion - white onion or yellow onion

    How to Make Egg Roll Bowls

    1. First, sauté the onions.
    2. Then, add the pork sausage and crumble and brown. Add the garlic and ginger and cook until aromatic.
    3. Add the coleslaw mix, soy sauce, and sriracha and cook until softened and combined.
    4. Top with green onions and sesame seeds - enjoy!

    Recipe Tips and FAQs

    What kind of meat is used?

    I typically make this recipe with regular pork sausage (NOT Italian Sausage).

    But ground pork is an easy substitute or you could even substitute a turkey sausage, ground turkey, or ground beef.

    Is this recipe a complete meal?

    I think so!! If I want to make it even more filling, I love topping it with a fried egg.

    You could also serve it with steamed rice or lettuce cups.

    How many servings does this make?

    Depending if you’re feeding adults or kids and how hungry you are, I would say 3-4 servings.

    You can stretch it further by serving topped with a fried egg, a side of rice, or as a lettuce wrap filling.

    What typically is in an egg roll?

    Egg Rolls are a kind of deep-fried appetizer commonly served in Asian restaurants.

    Chinese egg rolls are typically savory and filled with shredded cabbage and pork. The inspiration behind this recipe!

    Is this egg roll in a bowl recipe paleo or Whole30 friendly?

    It can be! The only non-compliant ingredients are the soy sauce and sriracha. For the soy sauce, you can substitute coconut aminos to make it paleo-friendly. And you can also swap in a paleo-sriracha substitute like this one.

    I can’t find coleslaw mix? Can I make my own?

    Absolutely! A blend of shredded green cabbage, shredded purple cabbage, and shredded carrot will do.

    • 5 cups shredded green cabbage
    • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
    • ½ cup shredded carrot

      My whole family loves this. We use the ground pork instead of sausage & we add hoisin for a little sweetness.
