Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (or any other ground meat)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 16 oz coleslaw mix
  • 1/2 cup carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 1 crown broccoli florets, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp hoisin sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Brown the Ground Meat: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is fully browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
  2. Cook the Onion: Add the diced onion to the skillet containing the ground beef and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the onion is translucent and tender.
  3. Add Flavorings and Vegetables: Stir in the minced garlic, ground ginger, hoisin sauce, and soy sauce to the skillet. Then add the coleslaw mix, peeled carrots, and diced broccoli florets. Mix everything thoroughly and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
  4. Finish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Optionally, garnish the dish with green onions, sesame seeds, or any of your favorite toppings before serving. Enjoy your quick and flavorful Egg Roll in a Bowl!

Notes

  • You can substitute ground beef with ground chicken, pork, or turkey to vary the protein source.
  • Adjust the amount of hoisin and soy sauce depending on your desired sweetness and saltiness levels.
  • For a lower-sodium option, use low-sodium soy sauce.
  • Add chili flakes or a dash of Sriracha for a spicy kick.
  • Make it vegetarian by replacing ground meat with tofu or tempeh and using vegetarian hoisin sauce.
  • If preferred, garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or basil for more flavor contrast.
