- Meat: Ground chicken or pork

How To Make It
Low Carb Egg Roll In A Bowl is a quick and easy one-pot meal. Follow these 3 simple steps and you’ll have dinner on the table in no time.
- Brown the ground pork or chicken with garlic, onion, and ginger (see recipe below).
- Stir in broccoli slaw and add the remaining ingredients.
- Place in a serving bowl and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onion.
For pure convenience, you can’t beat store bought broccoli slaw, but you can make your own easily as well!
How To Make Broccoli Slaw
For best results when making broccoli slaw, remove the tough peel that is near the cut end of the stalk and use only the tender interior.
- Cut the broccoli crown from the stalk and trim the end.
- Using a paring knife, carefully cut away the toughest peel, starting from the bottom and working toward the crown. The peel nearest the crown end can remain.

I used ground turkey and low sodium soy sauce. Also used shredded cabbage (like for slaw) as husband does not not broccoli slaw. It turned out wonderful and this will be made many times in the future.
