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.

Ingredients:

Directions:
- Add coconut oil to a wok; melt.

This post is part of a post series called Meals in the Kitchen, which is on the subject of food. I’ll talk about my love for food to sharing recipes that I love cooking to food tips.
I LOVE egg rolls! This looks AMAZING – and much healthier than a fried egg roll!
Looks very easy to make.
Whaaat.. this sounds amazing! I’m vegetarian but I could swap some Beyond Meat crumbles in there and I bet it would be awesome. I’m definitely giving this one a try! Thanks!
Oh my gosh – yum! And no carbs! This looks like an amazing (and easy) lunch!!
I love sushi bowls, but never tried these. Looks delicious!
Stop! You are literally making my mouth water! Egg rolls are my favorite! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I’ll be giving it a try! Here’s hoping mine looks as good as yours does! 😉
omg WHAT! love me some egg rolls and in a bowl style?! YES PLEASE!
My husband would LOVE this. He is a huge egg role fan. I will have to try it out.
These look scrumptious! Maverick loves eggrolls, but they are such a pain to make at home. Your eggroll boll looks easy and delicious.
I definitely want to try these! Anything to help reduce the carbs but still taste like the real thing!
Yum! These look so tasty! I love eggrolls so this dish is right up my ally!
These look amazing!!!! A quick and easy lunch option for me and hubby.
These look delicious! My hubby would love these.
I love egg rolls in a bowl. It is odd because I don’t actually like egg rolls.
I’m so confused that there are no actual eggs in this.
I will probably substitute pork with another type of meat – not really crazy about it.
I have a very similar recipe that I love. Maybe I will have it for lunch today.
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.
A favorite at our house too!
OH Wow! I’m going to try this out! I love every single ingredient!!! Especially cabbage this would be a great dish for meal planning! I’m pinning for later!
Yummy! We had something just like this tonight, except with chicken!
I love eggs rolls but never had egg roll bowls before, this sounds delicious! I will definitely be making this at home, thanks for sharing! 😉
