Make this savory Egg Roll in a Bowl with ground turkey and coleslaw mix for a fast, low-carb dinner. It tastes like your favorite takeout egg roll filling, ready in under 20 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground turkey (or ground pork)
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) bag coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Optional garnish: sliced green onions, sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
  3. Add the ground ginger and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the coleslaw mix. Stir everything together and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until the cabbage begins to wilt slightly but still has some crunch.
  5. Stir in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper. Cook for 1 more minute, stirring to coat all ingredients evenly with the sauce.
  6. Remove from heat. Serve immediately, topped with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

  • For a Whole30 or strict low-carb option, substitute the soy sauce with coconut aminos.
  • If you prefer ground beef, use it in place of the turkey; adjust cooking time slightly if needed.
  • This recipe is excellent for meal prep; store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
