What is an Egg Roll in a Bowl?

Egg roll in a bowl is a dish made of inside mixture of egg rolls with meat (usually pork or beef), cabbage, ginger, garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil. These are then topped with sriracha mayo to make them even tastier! Egg roll in a bowl is a healthier, low carb alternative to the typical Asian egg rolls when you crave Chinese food.

Is an Egg Roll in a Bowl Low Carb?

Thus, making it perfect for someone who is trying to stay low on carbohydrates as it only has around 5 grams of net carbs!

Does an Egg Roll in a Bowl Have Egg in It?

Yes, but eggs can be omitted from the recipe if you are avoiding eggs or if you prefer not to have eggs in your meals. The egg in this recipe gives more flavor to the dish, as well as adding extra protein, while staying within your carb limit. Eggs are great to have on a keto diet as they can be added to many meals without adding carbohydrates, so think twice before removing the egg from this recipe.

Meat Options

I use pork in this recipe, but ground beef or ground or diced chicken or even shrimp can be used as a substitute. These are all good sources of protein, so if you don’t eat pork, not to worry as you have other meat options you can use in this recipe. It is suggested to use higher quality meat if possible as it would have more healthy fat in it.

Is Coleslaw Mix Keto?

Yes, coleslaw mix is keto friendly! Most mixed coleslaw contain carrots which are higher in carbs but the amount of carrots in coleslaw mix is so minimal, that it won’t make a difference in the overall carb count for the day. Homemade coleslaw can be made low-carb, filling and full of nutrients. If you are buying ready made coleslaw, make sure that there is no added sugar listed on the ingredients, as that specific coleslaw would not be keto friendly. My local grocery store sells bags of shredded cabbage. This is a huge time saver when it comes to prepping dinner. It is one less step I have to do plus shredding cabbage on your own can get messy!

How many Carbs are in Cabbage?

A lot of people tend to think that cabbage is carb free. However, that is not the case. Yes, cabbage is very low in carbs but it still has around 2 grams of net carbs per cup shredded. The calories in a cabbage may vary depending on which type of cabbage you’re using, but roughly, they contain the same amount of carbs. All types of cabbage are safe to eat on a keto diet as it is not a starchy vegetable, which is why we suggest using it in this recipe. Cabbage can also provide certain nutrients which you might not be getting on a low-carb diet, so it is recommended to include some if you’re following a keto diet.

Are Egg Rolls Wrappers Keto approved?

No, egg roll wrappers are typically made of flour and contain gluten making them not keto approved. An average egg roll Wrapper tends to have about 25 grams of carbohydrates, which is far too many carbs for a keto diet. This is why we have come up with this tasty Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe, and if you make this recipe, you won’t even miss egg rolls anymore!

What Sauce to Use in Egg Roll in a Bowl?

The sauce is a mixture of liquid aminos, which is a low carb substitute for soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil. The dish is also topped with a sriracha mayo, which is made from mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. These toppings make the meal taste even more delicious and take it to the next level, so make sure not to skip out on them!

– Soy Sauce vs Liquid Aminos

Soy sauce has a small amount of carbs and gluten as it contains wheat, so if you are trying to go gluten free and very low carb, liquid aminos can be used instead. Soy sauce and liquid aminos are pretty similar in taste. However, liquid aminos tend to be less salty, milder and slightly sweeter than soy sauce.
