This easy one pot dinner is a keto classic! For our Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl we add a few extra ingredients for flavor and surprisingly use pork breakfast sausage for additional flavor. Although this is an easy meal, we have always felt that the classic recipe lacked in flavor or needed more time to marinate. The pre-seasoned breakfast sausage and extra ingredients adds way more flavor to the dish. It is one of our favorite meals! This meal is ready in less than 30 minutes, making it perfect for busy weeknights or meal prep.
Protein
Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl or otherwise known as “crack slaw”, is usually made with ground pork. We like to use pork breakfast sausage as it has way more flavor. It might sound a bit odd, but trust us on this! If you’re not into pork, you can use any protein of your choice; such as ground beef, chicken or tofu. Even a scrambled egg would be lovely in here! If you’re opting for the breakfast sausage option, pay attention to the labels as the carb content can greatly vary depending on the brand. To use breakfast sausage in this recipe, remove the casing and break apart with your spatula.
Sauces
Sauces are what make this dish delicious! Unlike most recipes, we opt to add fish sauce into the stir fry. Not all fish sauce brands are created equal. We recommend buying the Three Crabs Fish Sauce or the Squid Brand Fish Sauce for the best results. You should easily be able to find these are your local Asian grocery store.
Vegetables
Traditional egg rolls use shredded cabbage, savoy cabbage, and carrot. For our Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl we use a bag of coleslaw mix. This recipe is meant to be easy! Using the coleslaw mix saves a ton of time. Of course, you can always chop your own cabbage or carrot for this recipe. Luckily, cabbage is low in carbs, making it perfect for a keto diet. One cup of shredded cabbage has only 4.1 grams of carbs and 1.8 grams of fiber. It is also high in Vitamin C, Potassium, Magnesium, Vitamin K and A.
