Ingredients in Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl
Ingredient Notes
- Ground pork - This keto egg roll in a bowl recipe is made with ground pork, but it is also excellent with ground beef, ground sausage, ground turkey, or a combination of any of ground meats.
- Soy sauce - If you don't eat soy, coconut aminos is a great substitute for this pork egg roll in a bowl.
- Sriracha - This adds the perfect amount of heat. While sriracha really adds something special to this dish, it is still fantastic without it.
- Rice vinegar - make sure to use unseasoned rice vinegar to keep keto-friendly and sugar free. Seasoned rice vinegar has sugar added.
- Toasted sesame oil - this imparts a slight nuttiness to the flavor of the dish.
- Ground ginger: You can also use a teaspoon of fresh grated ginger.

Recipe Tips and Variations
- Storage: Store leftover low carb egg roll in a bowl in the fridge for up to 5 days. (These are my favorite storage and meal prep containers)
- Reheating: I recommend reheating this in the microwave, or in a pan on the stove top.
- Use broccoli slaw: This keto egg roll in a bowl is also delicious with broccoli slaw in place of the coleslaw.
- Add noodles: Serve it with these Sesame Ginger Noodles, or just cook up some shirataki noodles in soy sauce, rice vinegar and sriracha.
- Serve it on rice: If you are not concerned with the carb count, this is delicious served on top of white rice. For a low carb rice option, serve it on top of this Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice.
Frequently Asked Questions
You wouldn't believe how often I get this question. This recipe is meant to be like a deconstructed egg roll. Egg rolls do not typically have eggs in them. However, this recipe is awesome with a yolky fried egg on top, or scrambled eggs mixed in.
With one simple swap, this recipe can be made whole30 compliant. Simply use coconut aminos in place of the soy sauce.
This recipe is also delicious with broccoli slaw, Shirataki noodles, a mix of coleslaw and broccoli slaw, chopped broccoli, cauliflower rice, or even a medley of your favorite vegetables.

Love this crack! I use it as is for dinners and when I need to bring an appetizer, I chill it, slice up some jicama as a wrap and skewer them. Served with a Thai peanut sauce. Fabulous! Thanks so much.
Colleen says
I made this a couple times, and the second time used a broccoli slaw mix and some red cabbage in place of the green cabbage. It turned out really good!
I highly recommend sliding an over-easy fried egg on top and eating a bowl for breakfast. 🙂
Thomas Warren says

MICHELE M KLEASON says
Exactly like a egg roll. Like the spice and the sour taste all at the same time.Yum. Quick and easy for a weeknight dinner. Very filling too.
Holly says
Quick and easy! Love it and kids do too. I've made this a few times. I don't have Siracha sauce so I've substituted Green Pepper Cholulu which is probably much milder but still tastes great. I've also tried both Coconut Aminos and soy sauce. Coconut Aminos tastes similar to soy sauce but is expensive. So if not allergic or on a special diet, soy sauce is my choice.

Favorite recipe ever! I never get tired of Egg Roll in a Bowl. I also like to mix my garlic chili sauce with a little mayo for some extra creaminess on top!
