This Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe is an easy one-pan meal that is delicious and perfect for weeknight dinners or meal prep!
A few years ago, I loved making elaborate recipes with fancy, new-to-me ingredients. Complicated meals that were beautiful and perfectly curated were my jam. These days? Ain’t nobody got time for that. In fact, as I’ve gotten older, my meals have gotten simpler and simpler. Especially when it comes to dinner.
As I get closer to fully leaning into my entrepreneurial journey, I’m learning how valuable my time really is. When I’ve only got 24 hours in a day, and am running my own business, teaching fitness classes, supporting clients, prioritizing my own health, and still want to have a life, spending hours in the kitchen each day just doesn’t make sense. I know I’m not the only one who has a hectic schedule and wants to spend less time cooking and more time living (I’m assuming you do too, friend).
With all this in mind, easy one-pan meals have been more up my alley lately – and I want to share more of my super-simple (but still delicious go-to meals) with you. This Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe has been a solid staple in my meal rotation.
I’ll be honest, this recipe isn’t necessarily unique as I had seen people making versions of it on Instagram. Finally one night a few months back, I started craving the flavors and decided to put together my own version. I did a few Instagram stories showing how to make it and was constantly getting asked for the recipe time and time again. I sent it to my email list a little while back and got amazing feedback from those who have tried it, so I decided to put it on the blog to make it easier to share.
This version of Egg Roll in a Bowl is SO easy, so good and is made all in one pan. You can mix and match the vegetables and proteins you want to use to suit your preferences and what you have in the fridge. Bonus: this version is Whole30 friendly, and also makes an amazing savory breakfast option with an egg on top. Adding avocado on top is also a huge game-changer (because avocado is always a huge game-changer).

This Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe is an easy one-pan meal that is delicious and perfect for weeknight dinners or meal prep! Bonus: it’s Whole30 friendly.
Ingredients
- 1 Pound Lean Ground Pork or Ground Turkey
- 10 oz Coleslaw Mix (I used a Kale Slaw that had shredded green and purple cabbage, kale and carrots)
- 2 Teaspoons Avocado or Olive Oil
- ½ Onion, Diced
- 2 Cloves Garlic, Minced
- 3 Tablespoons Coconut Aminos
- 1 Teaspoon Sesame Oil
- 1 Teaspoon Fish Sauce (Make sure it has no added sugar if you’re on Whole30)
- 1 Teaspoon Fresh Chopped Ginger (or ¼ Teaspoon Ground Ginger)
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent.
- Add the garlic, ginger, and ground meat to the pan. Break up the meat until it’s cooked through and no longer pink.
- Add the vegetables to the pan and saute until they begin to wilt. If your pan is full, you can cover the pan and let the vegetables steam for a few minutes to cook down a bit.
- Once the veggies are cooked to al dente, add the coconut aminos, sesame oil and fish sauce. Stir to combine. Taste to determine how much salt/pepper you would like to add. Serve immediately.
