You may have seen the recipe for Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl floating around a lot on the internet. It’s one of my favorite meals, so I had to make my own take on it! It’s super simple to make, takes less than 30 minutes to prepare, and only uses one pan. Clean up is easy! We gave it an Asian flare since that is our favorite flavor profile, but you are welcome to customize it however you’d like!
What is Egg Roll in a Bowl
Egg roll in a bowl, also known as “crack slaw” is an Asian dish turned keto. We transformed high carb egg rolls into a low carb extra flavorful dish, dare I say more flavorful than the original?… This recipe has a stir fry like base made of cabbage, ground pork, and sesame oil. It is a super easy recipe that can be done in under 30 minutes.
Stir fry’s are also great options for those who meal prep or are cooking for a crowd. They store well, are super filling, and of course, are super fast! Some of our other stir fry based favorites are this chicken stir fry and our easy keto cashew chicken.

Are Egg Roll Wrappers Keto?
This low carb egg roll in a bowl omits the traditional wonton wrappers which are NOT low carb. Per wrapper it is 4-8g of carbs. That is just one wrapper, imagine eating 3 or 4. Before you know it you would have gone over your net carb limit for the day. Egg roll wrappers are also made of a base of primarily wheat. There is a little bit of egg, but mainly wheat making them not ideal for a low inflammation diet like keto.
That is why we came up with a keto egg roll in a bowl recipe. It gives you tons of Asian flavors and a variety of textures without the carbs. Trust us, with this keto recipe you won’t even miss the wrapper.
Are There Eggs in Egg Rolls?
Egg rolls do not actually contain eggs, however the wrapper on egg rolls do. Originally a batter was created with eggs and cooked into very thin crepe like wrappers. These mainly egg based wrappers would wrap the cabbage and meat filling. This is where the egg roll name originally came from.
We do love to put eggs on top of our egg roll in a bowl though because it adds extra flavor and a nice crispy texture. We try to make our keto recipes with a plentiful serving size to keep you fuller for longer. Eggs are super satiating and a great way to bump up the satiety factor of this meal.
Picking a Protein
The protein you use in this easy egg roll bowl is up to you. Some people love ground chicken, and others ground beef. The biggest note is that whichever protein you choose there may be a few additional ingredients required. Ground beef and ground pork are fattier meats so the dish will stay moist. However lean proteins like ground turkey tend to dry out, so you may want to add a little extra sesame oil or olive oil into the mix. If you aren’t worried about the net carbs you can also add a little extra coconut aminos or a splash of rice wine vinegar for moisture.
Protein Options
Again this “keto crack slaw” as some call it, is all up to you. Change up the proteins however you’d like to make your ideal meal. Some options are:
- Ground Pork
- Ground Beef
- Ground Turkey
- Ground Chicken
- Seasoned and Cooked Salmon Fillet- Make the crack slaw veggies with chili sauce or sriracha like normal. Then just top the shredded cabbage with green onions, cooked salmon, and toasted sesame oil
For this recipe we used ground pork because we felt it gave the best all around texture and flavor. Play around with proteins to find your favorite!
Tips for Making Keto Friendly Egg Roll in a Bowl
With tons of possible keto combinations, this recipe makes the perfect base to add whatever proteins you crave. Follow these tips to make one of our all time favorite keto dinner recipes perfect every time.
Use Garlic and Ginger
Garlic and ginger are the components that give this dish its Asian flavor. If possible we always recommend using fresh garlic and fresh ginger, but powdered versions will work as well.
Pro Tip: Store ginger root in the freezer. That way it lasts for 3-6 months and you can grate it into your dishes straight out of the freezer.
Coleslaw Mix Works Best
Most stores sell pre-made coleslaw mix that is perfect for this dish. These usually have a mix of different types of cabbage as well as a few other vegetables (usually carrots). If you can’t find it then just get a full head of cabbage and a couple of carrots instead. It goes without saying but, don’t buy cabbage or coleslaw mix that has a dressing on it…
Gluten Free AND Soy Free!?
As you probably already know soy sauce is made from soybeans, which many people on a ketogenic diet try to avoid. Did you know soy sauce also contains gluten? The perfect way to make this recipe gluten and soy free is to switch out the soy sauce for coconut aminos. Coconut aminos are made by fermenting the sap of the coconut blossom. Coconut aminos do contain some sugar, but the flavor is so strong you only need a few tablespoons worth.
If you prefer traditional soy sauce flavor go ahead and pick up some gluten free soy sauce like tamari to avoid the wheat. Either way coconut aminos and soy sauce will make a delicious keto egg roll in a bowl!
Add Some Spice
Egg roll in a bowl is all about the contrast between spicy and sweet. To add spice to this recipe you can use whatever your preferred hot sauce or spicy seasoning mix is. Some of our favorites are:
Spicy
- Sriracha– An Asian classic that makes this dish really taste authentic with minimal work.
- Fresh jalapeños- Make sure to cut these with gloves or wash your hands well after. Jalapeños are so spicy they will burn your eyes if you touch them after cutting.
- Chili Garlic Sauce– This stuff is spicy! A little chili sauce goes a long way in really flavoring up a low carb egg roll.
Sweet
- Coconut Aminos- This sweet coconut sap is sure to pack flavor and that sweet and spicy combo you want
- Liquid Stevia- A few drops of liquid stevia is enough to really sweeten up the dish for a good balance.
The next time you make this recipe you’ll be able to pick and choose your favorites, making your perfect egg roll in a bowl.
Use a Hot Skillet
It’s important to use high heat to get some browning on the meat, otherwise you will not have much texture in the finished dish. Adding the vegetables will make it hard to get any color on the meat, so make sure you get the meat cooked to your liking before adding the vegetables. You also add 2 tbsp of chicken broth to help keep the meat moist so no worries there!
Use Meat With a High Fat Content
Or add extra fat if you are using a leaner type of ground meat like ground turkey. The beauty of this recipe is that the vegetables soak up all the fat and flavor. If you decide to go with ground turkey or ground chicken you may want to add a couple tablespoons of additional fat. I would recommend coconut oil or ghee.
Don’t Play By The Rules
Have some fun in the kitchen. This is the perfect recipe to get experimental because you really can’t mess it up. Add some of your favorite ingredients and try out new flavors!
Sesame Oil Makes a Difference
If there is a single ingredient in this recipe that you probably shouldn’t leave out it is the sesame oil. This is an oil you add at the end which brings the dish together. It has an unmistakable flavor that you’ve come to expect from classic Asian recipes. Don’t forget some sesame seeds too! Sesame seeds add a lovely crunch and texture to the finished product.
Filling up Egg Roll in a Bowl
We like to keep our recipe fairly traditional with coleslaw mix, meat, and sesame oil. Depending on your allotted carbs and preferences though, egg roll in a bowl can really be customized to you. Keto recipes like this allow for many swaps and additions depending on your goals. Some of our favorite keto egg roll in a bowl mix-ins are:
- Sliced bell peppers- Your serving size of bell peppers would need to be smaller for carbs sake, but the next time you make your egg roll in a bowl try tossing in a handful of sliced peppers to the mix. They add crunch, sweetness, and a fresh veggie element
- Carrots- If you’re using a coleslaw mix this may not be applicable, but if you are working from scratch add in some carrots. We love lots of crunchy carrots, just make sure the serving size fits your unique carb goals.
- Onion- Thinly sliced onion adds a nice caramelized sweetness to the recipe. This will definitely up the carbs in your nutrition facts for keto though, so it may be best to only include onions if you’re paleo.
There is nothing quite like a full hearty egg roll in a bowl for dinner. It is a low carb option that will keep you full and satisfied for hours. Cabbage and other veggies you add will bump up the fiber content slowing the digestion so you stay fuller for longer(1).
Garnishing Egg Roll in a Bowl
Garnishes make a huge difference in the end product of an egg roll in a bowl. They will add additional texture and freshness to the meal. Some people love green onions for a bright fresh flavor, and others freshly sliced jalapeños. Your toppings are up to you, but some of our favorites are:
- Sesame oil- Sesame oil brings an authentic flavor you look for in egg rolls
- Green onions- Green onion is a keto way to add a little extra flavor and punch without too many carbs. Green onion is also lower in net carbs than your traditional red onion making it the perfect addition to this bowl
- Egg- I know this is egg roll in a bowl, but topping your bowl with a fried egg really adds another great layer of flavor. Plus who doesn’t love a runny yolk?
No matter which garnish you choose for your easy to make keto egg roll in a bowl recipe, we know you’ll be happy. The next time you make this recipe play around with new toppings to find your favorite!
Can I Eat Egg Rolls on Keto?
Sadly no, egg rolls are NOT keto. Each egg roll has 25g of carbs and 24g of net carbs. Even though they are definitely not keto this egg roll in a bowl is. We’ve dropped the carb count so low you’ll be able to eat two bowls and still be in you carb limit. Per serving of this recipe there are only 4.75 net carbs. So don’t wait any longer, get into the kitchen and start making this recipe today!
How to Make Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl
This recipe is easy and delicious requiring only 10 minutes cook time, and 12 minutes total time. It will remind you of those tasty egg rolls you remember without all the carbs.
Ingredients
The base of this recipe is shredded cabbage and meat. We used ground pork along with shredded cabbage/ coleslaw mix. If you can’t find coleslaw mix you can use broccoli slaw instead. Broccoli slaw does have a bit more crunch and a bit of a different flavor, but you can use whichever you prefer!
For sauces and seasonings we used liquid aminos, chicken broth or bone broth, garlic, ginger, and sriracha. All of these ingredients work great in low carb recipes, but when combined together make a super tasty keto/paleo egg roll in a bowl. Finally to top this “crack slaw” you’ll need sesame oil, sliced green onions, and sesame seeds. Trust us the whole family will be going up for seconds when they taste all this flavor.
Putting it Together
This easy to make keto crack slaw comes together in 15 minutes and only has a 5 minute prep time. It’s a super easy keto recipe to make for your whole family that’s packed with flavor. The next time you make your family meal plan, this keto egg roll in a bowl should definitely be on it!
To cook your egg roll in a bowl recipe, begin by heating a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook your ground pork in the pan, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Once the ground meat is cooked, add in the liquid aminos and chicken broth. Now’s the time to add your spices like garlic, ginger, and whatever spicy element you prefer.
Now add in the low carb/ keto cabbage or coleslaw mix. You want your keto egg roll in a bowl to have a nice base so don’t be afraid to add in some extra cabbage or carrots if you want more volume. Cook the cabbage until it has begun to wilt.
Now add your favorite toppings. We love sesame seeds, fresh green onions, and sesame oil. If you want to make egg roll in a bowl keto you just need a few minutes and quality ingredients!
Storing
This recipe stores and reheats very well. It is one of those recipes that actually taste better the next day too, because the sauce’s flavors have time to marinate. If you want to make this recipe ahead of time just make sure to store it in an airtight container inside the fridge. We recommend eating all the leftovers within 5 days, but know they probably won’t last that long…
What to Eat With Egg Roll in a Bowl
This bowl is pretty much a meal in itself. There’s protein, fat, and fiber a hunger crushing combination. If you’re still hungry though try our keto egg drop soup along side this recipe. It takes 10 minutes to make and is packed with quality ingredients.

Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl
What You Need:
- Large Skillet
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground pork/beef/chicken
- 12 ounces cabbage (we used a ready made cole slaw mix)
- 1/4 cup liquid aminos (or soy sauce)
- 2 tbsp chicken broth
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp Sriracha
- 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
- 2 tbsp minced green onion
- 1 tsp Sesame Seeds
Instructions:
- Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat. Once hot add in the ground pork. Using a spatula break up the chunks of meat and cook all the way through.
- Add in the liquid aminos, and chicken broth and stir to combine.
- Add in the minced garlic, ground ginger and sriracha and combine. Allow to cook for 1-2 minutes as the liquid reduces.
- Add in 12 ounces of cabbage (we buy plain cole slaw mix) and stir to combine coating all the cabbage in the liquid and seasonings. Once the cabbage has wilted to your liking remove from heat. For more crunch combine and immediately remove from heat, for less crunch cook down for 2-3 minutes.
- Drizzle with sesame oil and garnish with minced scallions and sesame seeds, if desired. Enjoy!
What spices would you use to make it Indian
You could use curry powder, cumin and chili powder for a simple Indian take!
The Indian version sounds amazing!
For a quick take you could use curry powder, cumin and chili powder!
The only thing I would add to this recipe to take it over the top is a few drops of stevia. It really rounds out the flavor profile.
I agree, Alex. I made it before I read your comment and added 2 tsp. Swerve to the recipe – so much better! (I made it wi5 ground chicken, btw.) Super Delicious, and oh, so easy. Thanks, Megah!
Made this for me, but my non keto family loved it. I drizzled with know foods syrup and sirracha at it was AMAZING!
I tried this yesterday. Well, the vegetarian version. I used Morningstar Farm Crumbles (pretty low carb and medium protein) with lots of coconut oil for frying it up. Kept the rest of the recipe the same and it was totally AWESOME!
Yup. I could eat this every day!
I can’t wait to try this!
I made this and added two tablespoons of peanut butter while cooking the cabbage and it added a great creamy consistency! Thanks for all the recipes, guys!
Wow, that sounds like something we need to try asap! Thanks for sharing, Ryan!
I made this tonight and it really is like crack in a bowl! The only change I made was I added a bit of spicy scezchuan five spices which I think took it over the top!
How much is a serving
1/4th of the entire recipe!
How many oz, cups, etc is a serving? 1/4 of the recipe isnt very helpful, sorry :/
I am not sure, you can usually eyeball it and separate it into 4 servings.
This was amazing! My entire family loved it.
Thanks so much for all the awesome recipes. You’re making this way of eating MUCH easier to adapt to.
We make it all the time! Perfect for the entire family 🙂 Thanks for your support!
This is soo yummy! The store only had ground pork in 24oz cases, I’m glad I got it as I got 6 servings out of it. Set for the week.
This is definitely one of my keto go-to’s. I’ve also tried making this as a “burger in a bowl” sp instead of the Asian seasonings I add seasoning salt and worcestershire sauce then top it with shredded cheddar, mayo, mustard, reduced sugar ketchup, chopped pickles and a fried egg if my macros allow it. SO GOOD.
Just meal prepped this! Wish I could attach a photo! I can’t wait for lunch this week! Yum!
YAY 🙂
Megha,
I saw you make this last week and bought the ingredients the next day and have made it twice now. It was so good! I used your recipe and the Whole 30 recipe for the Creamy hot Sauce to top the Egg Roll in a bowl and it was so very good!!!
Spicy sauce:
in a small bowl whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise and 1-2 tablespoons compliant hot sauce (Used Garlic Chili sauce). Add a pinch of salt, to taste. To drizzle
I added a little Sesame Oil and Lime to the sauce… So Good!!!
Amazing – thank you for sharing the spicy sauce recipe! I love anything spicy and saucey 🙂
Made this tonight, it was delicious! Thanks for all your great recipes and videos. 👍
This recipe is quick, easy and turned out awesome! I didn’t have any sriracha, but tasted great nonetheless. Definitely a new go to recipe when I don’t feel like putting much effort into cooking!
Awesome! It’s one of our go-tos as well 🙂 Thanks for the support!
Made it for the first time tonight !! Thank you so much for this. Yummy!
Love your recipes, thanks for sharing!! I’m not from the US and have never heard of the soy sauce/coconut aminos. Is it just used to replace regular soy sauce and save some carbs? Would be great if you could help me out. Sometimes it’s hard to find a replacement for products that simply don’t exist in Germany. You even made me purchase measuring cups! 😀
Awesome recipe, Megha! Just made this recipe for our Friday night dinner. Can’t wait to serve this to my low-carb family tonight! Thanks for sharing.
Wow! This was excellent. Even my picky husband liked it. I am definitely making this again.
Just made for lunch and was fantastic! Thanks for the great recipe!
No scrambled egg?
Seriously delicious! My husband declared this “a keeper” right before he went back for seconds.
I made this dish several times already and LOVE it! Delicious and easy!
Yay! It is one of our favorites 🙂

I just made the egg roll in a bowl and I must say….it was wonderful
and too easy to be real. I used the ground pork can’t wait to try with every other meat and fish
THANKS
I love this, my kids love this, and I am so happy I found y’all!
Tried this recipe today with a few tweaks to the seasonings, super good! Love this recipe and a winner for my family too. I made a combination of ground pork and chicken version.
I have tried several of your recipes and I trust you guys
Don’t give out bad info so iam so grateful for all the help. Started Keto Jan 2 2018 . Glad I found you guys and looking
Forward to the Asian crack in bowl.
Glad you’re liking the recipes!
Hey guys!
I came across your site a few days ago and I’m so excited to try your recipes! Thanks for making it easy on us!
I just made the Egg Roll in a Bowl and followed the recipe perfectly. Dang guys…it’s awesome!! Keep them coming!
This was a great simple recipe, but….. mine came out way too salty. I need to water down the soy sauce or use a low sodium version next time. I love the other ideas that were posted in the comments. Megha, with those indian spices would you add any sort of liquid in place of the soy sauce/coconut aminos? Maybe a little bit of coconut milk? Or just some broth?
I’ve tried other egg roll in a bowl type recipes but this one is THE BEST! I used ground beef and those little frozen squares of minced garlic and ginger and added a sooon full of Swerve and it tastes like bulgogi beef. Heaven! Adding this to my regular recipe rotation for sure! My husband is not Keto and he loves this too.
Finally got round to making this. It’s so freaking good and easy – thank you!!
This was amazing! Thank you.
Do you drain the fat/oil off after the meat browns? Just curious. Didn’t see that step. That’s what I did the first time I made it but wanted to double check. Thank you! Love all your recipes!
No we did not!
It’s is one of my fav Keto recipes too! I use the white of the scallions and sauté that with the meat. I also add 1-2T of rice vinegar to it. Love it!
So Good! I cajuned it with hot sauce and tonys. C’est bon!
It gives the nutrition per serving, but it doesn’t say how many servings are in the recipe?
Four servings 🙂
what is the serving size?
Hi guys.
Hope you’re well. I just found you on YouTube I little while ago – loving it. I’ve been living keto for about 6 months, but finding it difficult in Canada to get some of the ingredients for some of the recipes; however, this recipe came up perfect. I absolutely love it.
I added celery as I love the crunch, so hoping that this doesn’t change the nutrional numbers too much.
As I’m keto cook for only me, I was wondering if you could give any suggestions on how to freeze this. Having a few freezer meals would make my life so much easier and help ensure I stay keto.
Thank you and stay well
Unlikely a good freezer option! Best in the fridge if you make it in bulk up to 5 days I would say!
Just made this for dinner. O. M. G.!!! Love it. Thank you.
I’m so very excited to try this! I started Keto a few months ago and Ketoconnect has been one of the sites that has helped me stick with the transition. Thank you both!
I had a question about the coleslaw mix you mentioned- a lot of sites list carrots as being not so great for Keto. I’m guessing there are so few in a serving from the mix that it doesn’t have a huge impact on this dish, but I wanted to get your opinion on it.
Thank you again!
Yep, the amount of carrots is so minimal it shouldn’t be a problem for keto.
Yum!!!
My favorite Keto yet!!!
I couldn’t add this recipe automatically on myfitnesspal so I did it manually and each serving came out to be 532 calories! I followed the recipe exactly and got the lowest calorie and carb ingredients I could find. Where did I go wrong?
If you search KetoConnect – Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl it should come up!
We made this over the weekend and it was so good. Thanks for the recipe!
You’re welcome!
What is the serving size for those numbers?
I find it very hard to believe this is single serving. Especially since it doesn’t actually say that anywhere I look. Not on your page, on any app I track it on. And nobody can get it to come out to that in any app. It’s delicious, I’m a huge fan!!!!! But let’s be real! Lol this is a massive serving size!
There are 4 servings in this recipe. You can find servings listed at the top of the recipe card, under the name!
This looks sooooo good and I’m so excited to find something asian. I love asian food and was disappointed to learn that most asian cuisine is not keto friendly. Just one question though. Everywhere I look they say to avoid sesame oil as it is not keto friendly. Your thoughts on this?
Thanks and please keep the recipes coming.
Hi Cara, Sesame oil contains 0g of carbs, so it is fine for keto.
So, I’ve been lurking around for a while, but I seriously needed to post on this one, I tried this one today and I love it!!!
I kinda eyeballed most of the spices as I usually do,but even my husband that is not on keto life and hates cabbage had a big bowl and liked it.
So thanks a lot for sharing your amazing work
Tried it tonight — my mouth is on fire, my lips are tingling and my eyeballs are sweating… haha!
I’m pretty sure hubby will love it though — he loves spicy things.
Easy to make though and if I make it again, I’m scaling back on the Sriracha for sure (and maybe the ginger). These are new spices to me.
I made this tonight but used some left over smoked turkey ribs. I just pulsed them down a bit in the food processor. I kept the Asian flavors but used Thai chili mint paste instead of soy sauce.
It turned out very good. I will definitely make again.
Love this recipe and love your YouTube Channel! You are my favorite Keto channel! Also I just bought your book and it is literally the best keto book I have read so far! Please write more and keep up the good work! Keto on!
Is the nutrition facts per recipe or per serving?
Per serving.
Passed this off on non-Keto friends and no one was the wiser. I love doing sneaky shizz like this! Also made it with ground beef, tamarind & stevia. I think beef is too heavy for this.
lol sneaky shizzz, glad they liked it!
I just made this for the first time and it is yummy! My hubby and I agree that it’s a bit salty. How can I cut the salty flavor? I tried Swerve and stevia. Any other ideas?
Did you make it with soya sauce? You can buy a reduced sodium brand or use less of it.
I was wondering if the amount of soy sauce compared to the aminos was supposed to be different. I used soy sauce instead of the aminos and I thought it was way too salty. I didn’t even use the 1/4 cup that was the amount in the recipe. The rest of the dish was great but I would leave out the soy sauce in the cooking and add it individually to suit. (Full disclosure-I am a ‘supertaster’ so I do register salt much much more than the average taste buds do).
We usually replace one for one, but yes it can be too salty for some! Good idea to do it to your own liking.
I made this for dinner, it was so easy and quick! Will definitely make it again!
I’m making this right now… I have a bag of frozen Asian veggies in the freezer to use up so I’m throwing that in there too… Making rice for the non keto family members. Smells pretty good so far!
Watched this video today and made it tonight for dinner. Husband loved it! He added sriracha on his and said it kicked it up a notch. Thanks for the great Keto recipes!,
I made this dish and can’t say I’m a fan. It definitely lacked flavor as is, I would add stevia or peanut butter. I also was disappointed on the calorie content, 4oz of ground meat is definitely not going to cut it. I used half a bag of cabbge and swapped that for half an onion. The recipe is bland and portions are small.
Overall good flavor but extremely salty. Should I try regular soy sauce instead of the aminos. Super easy to make.
I think soy sauce and aminos pretty much taste the same but you could just try adding less or less salt.
I just made the keto eggroll in a bowl. OMG, this is the best recipe I think I’ve made in a long time! I added fresh mushrooms to the recipe. I sautéed them first in some butter. I also used fresh ginger instead of powdered. And I used Ground chicken, dark meat only. This is definitely a keeper! Thank you so much for posting this wonderful recipe. 🙂
I’m confused the ingredients list amino acid but the directions state soy sauce. I’ve never usedcamino acids so I’m not sure if its the same. What is the difference between amino acids and coconut amino acids.
Thanks
Coconut aminos or liquid aminos are a soy-free option to replace soy sauce. You can use the same amount of soy sauce instead of the aminos.
1/4 cup of amino acids is too salty. I would start with a tablespoon and add more to taste!
Have tried so many of your recipes. This one i followed exactly as written except that i added the Swerve. Don’t know what it would have tasted like without. But it was fine with. I used chicken. And topped each serving with a few extra dots of sriracha for color and extra kick. For a non keto person, this would be great over rice. For me, the flavors were very good, but the whole dish left me wanting something more. This is one i probably won’t make again. But with a kudos to you guys for some of your other recipes, the butter chicken, broccoli soup, rosemary coconut bread to name a few are staples around this house. Thx.
Love uing chinese 5 spice
You have liquid aminos in the ingredient list but not in the directions? Are they necessary?
You can use liquid aminos or soy sauce.
Thanks for this recipe! It was really good and easy. Next time I will scale it up a bit because for my family of four, there wasn’t quite enough, everyone was still hungry after dinner – I even added more cabbage than it called for. I used fresh minced ginger instead oI powdered – about 2 tablespoons. I also mixed green & purple cabbage with shredded carrots to make it colorful. I will definitely make it again — this seems like a good thing I could make and take to work for lunch. Thanks!
This recipe was delicious. I made it with chicken sausage, left out the siracha and broth…added a little water and cooked it in a wok so it got super steamy and cooked fast. My non keto family had it over brown rice. We all loved it!
Made my 1st batch Saturday & it was gone by Monday afternoon – mostly by my 14 year old son!! 2nd batch today; with beef, chicken, & shrimp this time! The base recipe is fantastic; can easily tweak to taste! Super easy to prepare & have on hand, ready to hear & serve.
I made this tonight and plugged the recipe in to carb manger, but did it was 5 servings and it is coming up as 10g of carbs per serving. I used a small head of cabbage rather than the bag as thats all I could find but it looked fairly equivalent. What did I do wrong?
Not too sure! Calculating calories and carbs isn’t always perfect and different apps and calculators vary with their information. Make sure to subtract the fiber too!
This is so delish! I absolutely love it! But I must say, I love all of your food! Thank you so much for everything you do for all of us! You guys sure the best!💕
Do you know sodium content per serving?
No I’m sorry, but you could figure it out by using a food tracker app and making a recipe for it.
I made this for the first time last night and already have plans to make it again. Thanks for the recipe. Do you have recipe for or have you tried making a Thai Peanut Sauce version of this?
We have this peanut sauce recipe!
Omg this is my favourite keto meal ever, I have it almost every day, so quick and easy and so tasty, have tried it with beef, pork and chicken mince, always making sure I add extra fat when using chicken mince tho. My fave is pork mince mmmmmm guess what I’m making again tonight haha defo see why they call it crack slaw too lol soooo addictive lol
When I upload this recipe on MyFitnessPal app it says total calories per serving is 620 not 310 as it says here! 😩
I’d have to change my serving size to half for it to reflect 310… why is that?
Hmm, that is quite a difference. I would say it has to do with the amount of fat your meat has or the amount of oil/fat you added.
I love food that are Asian and Thai food I love your shrimp curry and will like this one too. but one of my problems is that I do not get enough fat but I get more protein could you give me a few things cheap that I can get or make so far I am using heavy cream for smoothies and I make some chocolate with nut to increase my fat but I still do not get enough thank for your web site and all the things you share love your site and your email to me thank you again Olga
Are we draining the grease from the meat or keeping it? Thanks.
We keep it 🙂
There should be a disclaimer that once you make it you can’t stop eating it lol. I made 4 servings the 1st time and it became my calorie cheat day. Where has this been my whole life¿°¿
I have recently found you two and I am sooo pleased to have! Im gonna make this tonight, thanks for being amazing you two! I will update soon.
I just want to say that I appreciate you and your husband’s sharing like you do. You’re just matter of fact and get right to the point instead of talking a lot, which I appreciate. Thank you for the great recipes!
I made this a few weeks ago. OMG. It was awesome!! thanks! My sister tried it and loved it too. Nice flavors and nothing is over powering anything else.
I’m allergic to sesames, what else can I use to swap out the sesame oil?
This dish is absolutely DELICIOUS!! Maybe the best “keto” dinner I’ve ever made. And wow, super quick to pull together. Thank you so much for this recipe – I’ll be adding this to my meal rotation for sure!
Definitely a much loved recipe in our Keto house!
I love this recipe. I make it often
I made this for the 1st time about 3 weeks ago. I have since made it for the 4th time tonight. Absolutely one of the best recipes that I have made since going keto in January 2019. The only negative is you can’t freeze it. But it is so daggone delicious ♡
Sooo good! My whole family loves it. It’s quick and easy and you’ll want to make extra!!!
This recipe was so yummy!! Even my little boy loved it. He ate two big bowls. Thank you for creating such an awesome recipe! ❤
This is my new favorite dish! Hubby loved it too, and he is a picky eater!
I love the way you present a recipe – low hassle tips. You have such an enthusiastic manner. Watch you all the time. Thanks for the recipe! I am definitely going to make egg roll in a bowl this week.
One of my favorite keto meals. It’s also great for leftovers. The kiddos love it too!
Husband loves this recipe ❤️♥️❤️ had 4 bowls!! Quick, easy and delicious! I’ve recommended this recipe to other keto followers.
Looks really good. I wondered if the sesame oil is considered a processed seed oil. I have been reading that processed seed oils (common vegetable oil) is very inflammatory and should be avoided. Does the sesame oil fall in with those types of oil?
Amazing!! Only thing I did differently was I did half sausage and half ground beef. Highly recommend!!
What a delicious sauce. I used beef, and a green bell pepper. I might add carrots next time, I wasn’t sure when to add. I went very light on the sesame oil, it’s quite strong. This is a keeper.
Looks Amazing!! Also, I have the twin to your dog!!
What ?
I LOVE this recipe. I can eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner….for days. I definitely recommend adding sausage. It’s a bit bland with just ground beef. The pork sausage adds great flavor. I just finished up eating a triple recipe and I’m making another batch tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.
Delicious!! I added an egg as well
I made this recipe for lunch today. I dont actually like egg rolls, but this was delicious!
This was so good! It tasted just like an egg roll. Will definitely be making again as a quick meal.
We tried this recipe, but did not have the liquid aminos, so used soy sauce instead: BIG MISTAKE! Way too salty. Could not eat it. If we try it again, would only used 1 tblsp soy (and low sodium soy at that).
My favorite Keto recipe. Even my kiddos love it.
Love this! The picky 16 year old wrapped his in a tortilla and made a “Mexican eggroll”.
Loved this, so easy to make. I didnt add sirachi but it was still amazing.
This was a perfect recipe, I’m always looking for ANYTHING other then just sprouts to add to my Asian inspired dinners with my family ❤️👍🏻
Delicious and easy to make
It was delish! I’m new to keto. Thank you for ll the helpful info and recipes. Love watching yall!
Serving size?
Matt and Megha don’t measure portions, but the entire recipe makes 4 servings. If you weigh your portions, you can weigh the finished dish and divide by 4. Hope that helps!
This was garbage. Love yall !!
I’ve made this recipe several times!! It doesn’t disappoint! Yum!!!!
I have this recipe in my weekly meal plan. It really gives me the Chinese flavor I miss. Thank you for creating it!
How about using the cabbage as the egg roll wrap?🙂
This has become a go to in our house, even for those not doing keto!
This recipe came out great; I didn’t even miss the wrapper. I loved the spice in this.
Do the macros change if we use coconut aminos vs liquid aminos? Used coconut aminos and it was delicious,!!! Thanks
Remarkable bc you’d expect to work a lot harder to achieve this level of authentic flavor. Great with rice which I make for the fam, and I do add the whole bag of cole slaw mix which is only an extra 4 ounces. Can’t go wrong with this.
First recipe I tried on this diet I hate to cook now I love it
Tried this tonight for dinner while my family had Spanish Rice. Win for me! Thank you for this recipe. Happy New Year to you guys!
Thank you so much for sharing! We are glad you loved it.
Ok, this was just genius. I loved this so very much! Granted, I did tweak it a smidgen (added a small amount of orange bell pepper and baby bella mushrooms, but the carb count stayed very low.) Thank you so much for your hard work creating recipes like this… my husband, who is thin and won’t even consider joining me on Keto, ate this and raved! Of course I had to make rice with it for him, but it is still feeding him in a very healthy way.
Y’all rock!

This is a weekly staple in our house. I like to add Chinese 5 spice!
Always tasty, Megha! Fun fact: green onion is the low carb brother to yellow, white or red onions. More flavor, beautiful color enhancement. Lots of us old school low carb eaters swear by them.
Delicious and so easy to make.
Where has this been all my life!!! Thank you so much!
I really liked it. Will make again. I did add a little sweetner to it to round out flavor as suggested.
Super good and so simple! You guys ALWAYS come through. We’ve had this twice this week.
Thanks for all you do 😊
This recipe was so very easy. It is very tasty and satisfying. Thank you for sharing.
does this freeze ok? am a 1-person keto cook
Legit, the best thing I’ve made in awhile from following someone else’s recipe. I would eat this on a non-keto lifestyle!! (I don’t even like leaving comments.. but it was that good)
So glad you loved it! It’s a favorite around here too 🙂
