Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 pound ground turkey or ground pork
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) bag coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce or tamari
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce (optional, for deeper flavor)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger (optional, for extra spice)
2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Sriracha or chili garlic sauce (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the ground meat to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
Add the fresh ginger and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce (if using), black pepper, and ground ginger (if using). Stir to combine with the meat.
Add the entire bag of coleslaw mix to the skillet. Stir everything together.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage mixture wilts and softens to your liking, about 5 to 7 minutes. You want it tender-crisp for the best texture.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
Divide the egg roll in a bowl mixture among serving bowls. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately with sriracha on the side if you like heat.
Notes
For a Whole30 Egg Roll Bowl, substitute the soy sauce with coconut aminos. Omit the hoisin sauce as it usually contains sugar.
This recipe works well for high protein lunch prep. Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you prefer ground beef or chicken, substitute it for the turkey or pork; adjust cooking time slightly if needed.
