Have you heard of this recipe yet? Egg Roll in a bowl to me is a low carb version of egg rolls minus the egg roll wrapper and it is served in a bowl. Pretty simple and really easy. This is a pretty legit recipe for the inside of egg rolls and I think I might even use the rest of it to make real egg rolls in my air fryer tomorrow. I don’t have any egg roll wrappers right now and we are kind of in the middle of a snow storm. It’s snowed probably around 7 inches by now. All the schools are closed and it’s a snow day. Even some businesses are closed.
My first time making this recipe I used regular pork sausage but most authentic egg roll recipes call for ground pork. To make this recipe point friendly and 0 points, you could use some ground up shrimp or chicken which would still be super good. If you still want the taste of sausage use some lean turkey sausage. It’s really up to you to decide what type of protein you can add in this! All the rest of the ingredients in this are pretty much zero points.

I updated the recipe. Thanks.
My hubby cooked this last night & it was fantastic!! We aren’t big on leftovers but saved this for lunches today. #delish
Sounds great!
This is the best meal I have had while doing Weight Watchers! I felt as if I was cheating. So yummy, highly recommend.
I made this recipe subbing some leftover shredded chicken breast and we loved it! No guilty eating with this one! Thanks!
This recipe is great- so easy with so much flavor.

Do you know the points with using Pork? I do not see it listed below the recipe. Thanks.
It was around 8 points. I know, I should have used ground chicken in my video. 🙁
Did you mean in a medium pan and not “Brown the sausage/meat in a medium sausage”?
Recipe sounds very tasty.
Thanks.
Lol. Yes I did mean medium sized pan. I fixed the recipe.
Are sugar and sesame oil zero points?
Made for dinner tonight used ground pork did not add sugar was still very good.

what is the serving size is it 1 cup or what
We made this last night and even my picky 8 year old enjoyed it. We will be making it again.
Made this tonight. Delicious! Definitely making it again!
I used lean ground beef it was delicious not sure of the points with ground beef
I would use your recipe builder to figure that out.
Tried this last night, followed it to a tee – it was AMAZING!
★★★★★
Can I substitute ground ginger? If so, how much do I use?
You can use 1/2 to 1/4 tsp of ground ginger.
I used 3/4 pound of lean ground pork amd added extra
Canbage and carrots to make a total of 6 one cup servings. Each serving in my calculator was 3 sp. also i stead of sugar I swapped it for one packet of truvia. Topped it with 2 tablespoons of wonton strip salad toppers for an additional 1 sp. So yummy!
★★★★★
U add cooked scallions? Do u saute them?
See step 5 of the recipe. It says what to do with the scallions. Thanks.
I made this tonight, and we loved it! I baked some won ton wrappers, and we used them like scoops, or chips and it was delicious. 5 wrappers are 3 points.
Thank you for this recipe!
★★★★★
Love the wonton wrapper idea!
My husband and I love this recipe. I work full time and after a long day i can put it together in minutes!
Filling. Nutritious! My favorite is Shrimp! Leftovers travel well in my lunch for the next day.
★★★★
I think I would add some fresh bean sprouts and sauté with the cabbage, maybe some diced shiitake mushrooms too.
