Egg Roll In A Bowl Recipe – Perfect Egg Roll in a Bowl for Diabetics
Have you ever tried to make the egg roll in a bowl recipe? I have seen it all over the place and decided it was time I made my own version. This is the perfect egg roll in a bowl for diabetics. Of course, if you’ve been following my recipes for a while, you know I’ve been diabetic for the last 15 years. If you are new to my site, check out my beliefs on diabetes here:)
Did I tell you how much my family LOVED this egg roll in a bowl recipe!? Literally, there were no leftovers!! I still can’t believe this happened because my kiddos are not the biggest eaters, so most of time we have leftovers and then we end up eating “fridge food” for dinner a couple times a week because we don’t want to let good food go to waste. But, this recipe was thrilling because there were NO LEFTOVERS!!
The original egg roll in a bowl recipe I read included ground pork, which I don’t regularly buy. I’m not the hugest pork fan (I really don’t have a great reason, it just isn’t my fave). I substituted ground turkey because I always have ground turkey in my freezer.
In my version of the perfect egg roll in a bowl for diabetics, I included a broccoli slaw. It came all ready to use in my produce section, it had broccoli, carrots and a little bit of red cabbage all sliced super thin. The original egg roll in a bowl recipe called for just plain old cole slaw mix, I knew my family may not eat the cabbage, but I totally got them to eat the broccoli slaw because they LOVE Broccoli:) So this was a winning substitution in my house.
When everything was about cooked, I added some broccoli crowns from my garden:) I cut them thin, so they would cook quickly and it gave a little extra texture to the egg roll mix too. Everyone gobbled the whole thing up!!
