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.

Mama Joy says
Great! I substituted ground chicken for the pork. I didn't have coleslaw mix so used a bunch of chopped cabbage and two grated carrots. I used fresh ginger because I had some. My kids don't do spicy, so I always leave that out and serve on the side for the adults, that worked well. My family gobbled it up! Will double next time.
Amy says
This was awesome! We used ground instead of pork, to make it leaner. I also waited some rides cauliflower to go with it. So yummy!
Brittany says
I never eat the same thing twice and I ate this 4 times in one week. I am currently making it again the following week. After having weight loss surgery and a complete stomach removal eating has been the worst for me ! Honestly this has made my life. Total fan and I can’t wait to dive into the rest of your recipes! If this one recipe makes me want to eat left overs I’d love to see what the others can do. It will be nice to eat like a normal person after 10 years.
Jessica says
This was SO great! I left out the sesame seeds (never have them on hand) ,added zucchini and also added rice because my husband is not Paleo :D. Easily as good as from a restaurant.
James says
We made this today - it was awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Kate says
I've been making this recipe for about a year now and it is ALWAYS a big hit! I have to triple the recipe for our family of 5 if I want any for lunches for the week because they easily can eat over a double batch some nights! I've passed this on to several friends, too that just love it! Thank you!
Monica Vila says
I love this recipe! My kids and hubby love it and we make it once a week! We serve it on artisanal lettuce spears for a crunch! So so good!!
KimS says
Oh my gosh this was delicious! I served it over a little brown rice. Going on my regular rotation! Thanks!!
Jennifer says
I did not have pork but i did have bacon and used it instead and this was amazing!!!
Hoosier Dave says
This was delicious. I only strayed from the written recipe to add a bit more onion (about 3/4 cup total) and I never fry anything with sesame oil because it burns so easily. I used peanut oil to fry the veggies and meat, then added the sesame at the end. with the slaw.
It's complex, very satisfying and bright. Well done on this recipe. I'll be making it again soon.
