Egg roll in a bowl is everything inside an egg roll without the fried wrapper. This healthy egg roll in a bowl uses lean ground turkey and adds edamame and scrambled egg for extra protein, for 31 grams per serving in 20 minutes.

A bag of coleslaw mix is the shortcut

Pre-shredded cabbage and carrots cook in about 4 minutes and make this one of the fastest dinners on the site. Pull the pan off the heat while the cabbage still has some crunch.

Toppings

  • A drizzle of sriracha or chili crisp.
  • Toasted sesame seeds.
  • A spoon of our spicy yogurt sauce from the salmon bowl.

Serve it with

Cauliflower rice to keep it light, or brown rice for a heartier meal. For a seafood version, see our shrimp stir fry.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the turkey, breaking it up, until browned, about 6 minutes.
  2. Add the garlic and ginger and cook 30 seconds.
  3. Add the coleslaw mix and edamame. Cook, tossing, for 4 to 5 minutes, until the cabbage is just wilted.
  4. Push everything to one side, pour the eggs into the empty space and scramble until set. Stir into the rest.
  5. Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar and sriracha. Toss and top with green onions.

Notes

  • Don't overcook the cabbage; it should keep a little crunch.
  • Keeps 3 days in the fridge.
