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.
You can use any ground meat you prefer - ground sausage, ground beef, ground chicken, and ground turkey are all excellent choices.

Love this recipe! I am having trouble eyeballing a serving size since I doubled the recipe. I know it would be an 8th of it but off hand would you know approximately how much that is? 2 cups? Thanks 🙂
Joy says
I will be trying this version tonight. Sounds very similar to another recipe I’ve used so already know it’ll be good. In the past I’ve used mild Italian pork sausage as it has a lot more flavor. I also have cabbage that needs used up. Should be great on this chilly and dreary Saturday. Think your recipes will help keep me on track with my keto journey!
Amanda says
This was really good! I followed the recipe exactly. Light and delish- felt like I was cheating. Will definitely make this again. Thank you!
Michelle says
My go-to quick meal. I usually double it so I can have some leftovers, but they go fast, too!!
Delaney says
This egg roll in a bowl recipe is delish! The only thing I noticed is that there is NO WAY this feeds 6 people. A 297 calorie dinner is VERY small if you're using it as the whole meal. I gave a small portion to my 7 year old daughter, and split the rest between my 12 year old son and my husband. I didn't get anything but the bits that were left on the spoon. Next time I will AT LEAST double the recipe so there are leftovers. But the bite I got was amazing! Thanks for an easy, delicious recipe.

Teresa says
SOOOOO YUMMY!!!!
Nate says
This recipe is one of mine and my husband's all time favorites. I've made it with beef, pork and chicken. It really does capture all the taste of an egg roll without the wrapper! Even folks not watching their carb intake love it. Thanks for creating this and sharing it! I know it'll stay a favorite in our kitchen!
Tyra says
This is part of our rotation of easy weeknight meals. I love the liquid aminos, because I have high blood pressure and love the taste soy sauce gives. I can't tell a difference in this recipe. I don't add Sriracha but use cayenne pepper when cooking the ground chicken (instead of pork). Even my fairly picky 16 yr old daughter loves this!!
Lisa Rowland says
We make this all of the time because it is our go to for the taste of asian take out. It is such a flavor bomb recipe. And it is pretty easy to prepare. We love it every time, and the leftovers go way too fast. Everyone will love this! Just make it.
