Egg Roll in a Bowl Ingredients
Fresh ingredients always taste best, which is why this recipe is full of fresh seasonings and veggies. You can buy certain things pre-cut, which will speed up prep time! As you get familiar with this dish, start switching out ingredients to play with the flavor profile! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.
Sesame Oil: Sesame oil adds that traditional flavor that you love to your egg roll and is a must in this dish!Onion: I recommend mincing them for this recipe so that the flavor is distributed evenly throughout the meal.Garlic: Garlic adds so much flavor and takes this recipe to the next level!Fresh Ginger: Fresh garlic is always the most flavorful, but you could use powdered if you are in a pinch.Ground Turkey: I used 1 pound of uncooked ground turkey in this recipe. If you don’t like turkey, you can use ground beef or pork instead! Soy sauce: I added soy sauce at the end as a finishing sauce on this dish. It was amazing! Prepared coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrot mixture): I just bought a bag of pre-cut cabbage and carrot mix, which is sold as a pre-made coleslaw mix at the grocery store.Salt and Pepper: To taste, but because soy sauce has sodium, you could leave out the salt if you felt like it.Chopped green onions: I served these on top of the dish as a garnish. It adds a nice bright, fresh flavor and a beautiful pop of color!Sesame seeds (for garnish): Because you already added sesame oil, you could leave this out if you wanted to. I personally love adding a sprinkle of sesame seeds for garnish after I have plated this dish for additional texture and flavor.
How to Make Egg Roll in a Bowl
Get ready to have a new favorite meal! This recipe is so simple, and it comes together in just 10 minutes. It’s even full of vegetables to keep it balanced and a well-rounded dinner.
Ground Chicken: Ground chicken goes great with this flavor combination and is a great substitution for ground turkey!Ground Pork: Ground pork is a wonderful option for this dish and tastes amazing with sesame oil.Make it Vegan: Don’t want protein? You can make this recipe completely vegan by substituting the ground turkey for veggies like mushrooms and carrots. Just cook the vegetables until softened, and you have a delicious vegan egg roll in a bowl!
Add Ground Mushrooms: Ground mushrooms add so much moisture and flavor to ground turkey, I promise it won’t be dry with this secret ingredient! The mushrooms can be added at the same time as the turkey and will release all of their flavor and juices into your turkey without watering down the dish. They also add a delicious beefy flavor that may otherwise be missing from ground turkey.
NOTE: Do your kids hate mushrooms? I bet they won’t even realize they are in it! Ground mushrooms don’t have the same texture as whole mushrooms. They will blend in with the ground meat and look almost indistinguishable. If you are really positive your kids will hate this dish with mushrooms then you can add an additional 2 tbsp of your choice of oil to keep your turkey moist.
In the Refrigerator: Once your dish has completely cooled (and it isn’t letting off any more moisture that would gather on the top of the lid), then you can place your egg roll in a bowl in an airtight container. It will last in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. To Reheat: This meal easily reheats in the microwave! Just make sure to cover it with a wet paper towel so it doesn’t dry out when you are reheating it.
