Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl

This Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl is one of my go-to lunch recipes or easy weeknight dinner go-to. It’s quick, easy, and perfectly packable, and not to mention it’s delicious.

It’s got everything you could ever really want in a meal too. Plenty of fat from the avocado oil, protein from the pork and shrimp, all sorts of beneficial fiber from the cabbage slaw, and the perfect amount of savory sauciness from the tamari.

This recipe is perfect for days when you are in a hurry and need something quick or to make ahead of time on your weekly meal prep day.

I grew up in a very rural part of the world, so we didn’t have a lot of quality restaurants around growing up. There were chain restaurants and local BBQ joints, but only a handful of ethnic eateries. I don’t know where the official line is between American food and ethnic food, but if it wasn’t a hamburger, hot dog, or soup beans it was too ethnic for my dad.

Anyways, the first time I ate an egg roll, it was in a barn/restaurant and it was delicious! Of course, it may not have been the most authentic egg roll as it was filled with Velveeta cheese as well as the traditional egg roll fare. But you know what they say, you never forget your first…egg roll.

Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl ingredients laid out on counter

What’s in a Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl?

  • cabbage (we use a pre=packaged slaw mixture)
  • green onions
  • ground pork
  • baby shrimp
  • spices (ground ginger, ground garlic)
  • tamari (or soy sauce if not gluten free)
  • avocado oil (or other oil suitable for high heat cooking – lard, tallow, coconut oil, ghee, or algae oil)

What other meat can I use?

Don’t like pork or shrimp? No worries! Here are a few more ideas to add to your Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl:

  • ground or diced, or sliced beef
  • scallops
  • ground, cubed, or sliced chicken
  • sliced pork
  • shitake mushrooms

Does an egg roll have an egg in it? Can I add egg?

An egg roll is called an egg roll due to the traditional egg roll wrapper used to wrap the fillings. That wrapper traditionally has an egg in it. If you want to add egg to your Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl then go right ahead! It will taste similar to Keto Fried Rice!

    Would a broccoli slaw mix be a good substitute in this recipe?

    Too salty. I adjusted the recipe and used 1 T avocado oil, 1/4 tsp garlic salt, 1 T Tamari and one head of cabbage and served in lettuce wraps.

    ERMAGERD! This egg roll in a bowl is super delicious, incredibly easy to prepare and has minimal ingredients. I can’t believe there’s only one rating for this recipe because this checks all the boxes for a satisfying, yummy weeknight meal. Thank you for posting; this satisfied a serious jonz for Chinese food that I’ve been trying to fulfill, unsuccessfully, for several weeks now.

These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally featured in our cookbook and now that Cast Iron Keto is focused on plant-based + low-carb recipes, we thought it deserved a permanent place on the website.⁠⁠If you have our cookbook, have you tried this recipe out of the Meatless Monday chapter? If not, we hope you do, even if you’re more omnivore than plant-based. Why? Because they are simply delicious!⁠⁠The combination of the crumbled walnuts, tender cauliflower, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a filling that, while it resembles ground beef, is much more layered in flavors.⁠⁠The toppings are completely up to you, these are just our go-to’s. Some type of creamy sauce would be delicious too. Maybe a bit of dairy-free (or regular) sour cream mixed with a bit of extra chipotle in adobo? Yes, that sounds just perfect.
