If you’re on the keto diet and haven’t had an egg roll in a while, this Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe is perfect for you! All the delicious egg roll ingredients and flavors, minus the carbs! Also with one small tweak, this is also a paleo/gluten free meal!
Egg rolls vs. Egg roll in a bowl
One thing I definitely want to call out is that normal egg rolls are really small and meant just as appetizer/snack. This Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe is meant to be a meal.
All right! Let’s compare the two dishes and see what their carbs look like…
How many carbs in one egg roll?
One egg roll is about 25 grams of carbs. So if you’re trying to eat Keto, egg rolls are probably something you’re going to want to skip from the menu!
How many carbs in egg roll in a bowl?
This egg roll in a bowl recipe is estimated to be about 3 grams per serving! Now you can enjoy the flavors of an egg roll without all the carbs!

How many calories in keto egg roll in a bowl?
If you also like to keep an eye on the calories, this egg roll in a bowl recipe is about 440 calories per serving. Of course if you like to eat more just 1 serving it would be more, so make sure to do the math properly!
How to make keto egg roll in a bowl?
Now on to the delicious good stuff… here’s what you and need and what to do.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 pound ground meat of choice (pork, beef, chicken, turkey, etc.)
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 10 oz shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce (or coconut aminos if paleo/gluten free)
- 2 green onions, diced
- Salt, pepper as desired
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp hot sauce (optional – I recommend Asian hot sauces)
Instructions
In a wok or large cooking pan, heat 2 tsp of olive oil, and add ground meat on medium high heat. Break up pork with a spatula and cook until meat is cooked thoroughly. Remove from heat and set aside.
If the pan is too dry, add another tsp olive oil. Add shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix and minced garlic, and stir fry for a few minutes.
Change the heat to medium. Push cabbage to one side, and then add eggs and scramble the eggs. Mix eggs with cabbage, and add ground meat back in pan. Add soy sauce and optionally hot sauce, and stir fry everything together.
Drizzle with sesame oil, sprinkle with green onions. Mix well, turn off the heat and serve!
