Egg Roll In A Bowl all the flavor of egg rolls minus the egg roll wraps and deep-frying. This recipe is super easy to make and you can change up the ingredients if you like to make it your own.
One of my favorite things, when I go to a Chinese restaurant or get take out, is the egg roll. They are the best thing about the whole meal. Yum!
But, making them at home is another story. The grease and the deep-frying get to be a little messy, that is one of the reasons why I love this recipe, no greasy mess.
And, I am sure that you will love this one too. You are going to love how fast it is to make and how easy it is to make.
Helpful Tips:
- Ground meat works perfectly for this recipe. If you don’t like the ground pork that I use in this recipe, try ground chicken, turkey, or beef. Any one of them would work fine.
- For the cabbage try to use a bag of coleslaw mix, it’s fast and it’s easy. If not you will want to have about 6 cups of shredded cabbage.
- Make sure to make this in a large skillet, so you have room to toss in a large amount of cabbage.
- I use cabbage, onion, garlic, and carrots for the vegetables in this recipes, but change it up by using mushroom, water chestnuts, bean sprouts, or bamboo shoots.
- Serve this with soy sauce, Chinese hot mustard, or sweet and sour sauce.
- This can be served with rice or by itself. I personally love it with some white rice.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days. The leftovers taste as good as the fresh if not better.

What a fun recipe, Dawn! We love egg rolls, but the fried part always makes me think twice. This is a great way to enjoy the same flavors in a healthier way. I would love this one for dinner tonight!
This looks so much healthier without frying, but DELICIOUS all the same!
What a fun idea for a recipe! Really like egg rolls, but not so fond of frying them. Neat idea to just skip that part and eat the good stuff! Very creative — thanks.
What a clever idea…I’m like you about the mess of frying so this is perfect.
This is really good I love it
