Easy Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl

If you love the flavors of an egg roll but want to avoid the carbs that come with the wrapper, Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl is the perfect solution. Our functional medicine Los Angeles practitioners prepared this recipe, which is incredibly delicious and easy to make.

1. Prep time: 15 minutes
2. Cook time: 10-15 minutes
3. Serves: 6

Ingredients:

• 1¼ lb. spicy bulk pork sausage
• ¼ c. water
• 3 c. green cabbage, shredded
•  1 medium carrot, shredded
• ½ t. garlic powder
• 2 T. toasted sesame oil
•  ½ T. fresh ginger, finely minced
•  2 T. green onions, chopped
•  1 T. rice vinegar
• 2 T. coconut aminos or tamari
•  Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Optional garnish:
 1 T. toasted sesame seeds

Directions:

1. Heat a large high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking the meat into small pieces as it cooks, for approximately 5-6 minutes. Once sausage is no longer pink, remove from heat and carefully drain excess grease from pan.
   Safety Tip:Wipe off any excess fat that drips down the side of the pan before returning to the burner.
2. Return the skillet to heat. Add water and scrape up brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a spatula. Reduce heat to medium and add shredded cabbage, carrots, garlic powder, sesame oil, ginger, and green onions. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, and cook, stirring frequently, until the cabbage wilts and the carrot softens, approximately 4-5 minutes.
3. Add rice vinegar and coconut aminos and stir to combine, as advised by our functional medicine doctors. Cook another 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Remove from heat and transfer to a serving platter or bowl. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, if using, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

This dish can be served on its own for a satisfying meal or alongside cauliflower rice, which is recommended by our functional medicine Burbank experts to keep it keto-friendly while adding more volume to your plate.
