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.

I LOVE this!!! I doubled the ginger and garlic and sriracha, and I used dark sesame oil, and it was very, very flavorful. I'll do the same next time because I like highly seasoned food. THANK YOU!
Joy says
Pork Egg Roll in a Bowl was delicious. I used soy sauce, otherwise followed as written. Made enough for me to have several meals, I did not tire of it.
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Awesome. So happy you enjoyed it
Holly says
Oh my! I made this yesterday for the first time and I can assure you it will not be my last time! It was SO amazing and delicious and I was sad when it was all gone! You can rest assured that I'll be making this over and over again! THANK YOU! 🙂
Michele says
I make this all the time! I've made it with ground pork, beef, turkey and sausage meat. I usually use my own shredded cabbage/carrot mixture and probably add about 3x the amount that you recommend and it still comes out amazing. I do this because it is truly addictive and the regular recipe would never be enough for my clan. Thank you so much for such an easy, delicious and health conscious recipe. I love your books also. Keep them coming!! :0)
Molly says
Thank you so much for this comment! I have a large clan too and I was looking through ALL these comments for someone who used their own shredded cabbage and who had a suggestion for making more without just doubling or tripling the entire recipe.
Mary Buckner says
First time making this...so delicious! My kids even ate it! Fast and easy, too! Thanks!
Jessie says

Patricia Healy says
I have made this twice and love it, very tasty and simple. I addes chinese 5 spice and used soy sauce. Keep up the great recipes!
Kara Osborn says
We absolutely adore this recipe! I've made it 10 times since we found it- memorized it we've had it so much. Thanks Kyndra!!
Jennifer says
This was so good I had to have a small serving of seconds! I will definitely make again. The flavours works so well together. I think vinegar is highly underrated in cooking, it adds such a depth to the flavour!
Krista says
Wow oh wow oh wow!! The flavors in this recipe were amazing!! Recommended to me by a friend (with two VERY picky 4yos) and I literally want to make this every single night from now on. We’re not Keto so I used GF tamari, along with 1/2 head of thinly sliced cabbage (I already had on hand), about 8 small cremini mushrooms roughly chopped, two grated carrots (orange and purple for color) and one small stalk of celery (because I’m trying to use it all up). Next time I make this — tomorrow?!? Lol!! — I’ll try serving it over riced cauliflower or as a lettuce wrap. I think I’d like to try it with ground turkey too. My two small boys and hubby ate it up! Anyway, make this NOW, and double the recipe. Trust me!!
Stacy says
The chili garlic sauce you mentioned (my favorite!) has sodium bisulphite in it. Do you have another recommendation as that will make this non-Whole30 compliant. I just started two days ago and realize how carefully I need to double check each recipe, even those that say Whole 30. Just getting the hang of it, but I don't want to miss something and mess up. Anything else on here that I may have missed that isn't actually Whole 30 compliant? (I did see regarding the soy sauce and bought the Coconut Aminos) Super excited to try this recipe!
Sarah says
Yai's Thai Chili Garlic Sauce is compliant (sold at Cost Plus World Market).

Thanks for the tip!
