Egg Roll in a Bowl: Low-Carb Recipe

If you enjoy egg rolls but want an easy dish you can make in half an hour or less, this is it. It's cheap, quick AND delicious!

To make it more frugal, chop your own cabbage and carrots. To make it simpler, use a pre-bagged, pre-washed 16-ounce slaw kit and/or another bag of matchstick carrots.

how to Make Egg Roll in a Bowl:

First, chop your cabbage, carrots and scallions. No need to do this if you buy the bagged mix, but I usually just chop my own. If you're using fresh cabbage, do about half a head.

Next, brown your pork sausage. Once the pink is gone, add the scallions and carrots. Continue to saute for 2-3 minutes, or until the veggies start to get soft.

Finally, add the cabbage and the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until cabbage is wilted. Serve by itself for a low-carb one-dish meal, or over rice or rice noodles.
