Egg Roll in a Bowl

I've been teasing this recipe for FAR too long on my Instagram, so it's about time I got my act together! Regardless, you're going to want to be sure to save this one for your next easy weeknight dinner.

As you can imagine, it provides all of your favorite egg roll flavors in a little different (and easier) form. I also love that many of these ingredients are pantry staples and all relatively inexpensive to stock up on!

For all of the veggie goodness, onion, carrot, and - most importantly - cabbage provide tons of phytonutrients and fiber to keep your gut happy.

As for the protein, I personally like using ground pork for a real "egg roll" flavor (plus it's a great, underrated lean protein). If you prefer ground turkey, beef, etc. you're always welcome to swap for these as well.

Sauté it all up with some simple, Asian-inspired ingredients like coconut aminos (or gluten free soy sauce), sriracha, garlic, and ginger.

Together these provide aaaaall the flavor that will make this meal a new staple in your house.

Let me know if you decide to give this one a try :)
