I make egg roll in a bowl all the time, it’s one of our family favorites. I have been trying to figure out a version that I like the best and this one is it. My husband kept saying how good it was with every bite! This recipe is easy, healthy and ridiculously delicious.
I love to make a double batch of this dish so that we can eat it for dinner and have some meal prepped for lunches (yes, we love it that much). Another great thing about egg roll in a bowl is that you can customize it to your preferences. Almost any ground meat will work for this, I personally love it with turkey or pork. You can add in some extra veggies or change up the spice level, make it your own!
When doing a Whole 30, as always, make sure to check your labels. Fish sauce can have hidden ingredients, so I always buy Red Boat because it is compliant. I also always use Frank’s hot sauce for my recipes because it is also compliant.
One of the things that made this recipe even better was the cream sauce! It reminded me of one of my favorite sushi rolls. The sauce just adds another dimension of flavor and creaminess. It only takes a few extra seconds and I promise, it’s worth it!
The cream sauce was inspired by Cheryl Malik of 40Aprons.

This meal is a healthy, easy, and an affordable weekly meal. My husband and baby loved it. I didn’t add the fish sauce, but we still loved it. The prep work takes some time depending if your cutting up your own garlic and ginger which I did. But if you have all that done, the prep work shouldn’t take long. I highly recommend this meal!
Thank for sharing Laurel! I’m so glad the family loved it 🙂
Easy and yummy meal for the family! I’m so happy we finally tried this recipe and will definitely be making again!!
