Egg Roll Bowls

Whenever you go to a Chinese restaurant, what food do you love to grab and put on your plate?

Few of the things I love to grab are sushi, snow shrimp, sesame chicken, spicy beef and onions, chicken and broccoli/ carrots, and of course an egg roll. Even my daughter Sophia loves egg rolls and has to have one whenever we go to the Chinese restaurant.

I wanted to make my own recipe based on a egg roll, except without the egg roll wrapper. I searched Pinterest for ideas until I found a recipe for inspiration to create my own recipe.

These egg roll bowls have so much flavor and you won’t miss the egg roll wrapper. You can use ground pork or shredded chicken for your meat. I have cooked my egg roll bowls both ways.

My husband and I love to eat these egg roll bowls for lunch, but they would also be perfect for dinner.

Below is my recipe for egg roll bowls.

    I will probably substitute pork with another type of meat – not really crazy about it.

  5. Oh my goodness. Get in my belly – seriously, these look so good! I love egg rolls, and I feel like these would go such a longer way. I definitely want to give these a try.
