I’m going to keep things simple today: If you like egg rolls, but feel bad about yourself after eating a dozen of them, you’re going to love this.
It’s got all of the deliciousness found on the inside of an egg roll, but pan-fried in healthy fat & eaten straight out of the bowl. Because, who needs soy sauce & egg roll wrappers in their life, anyway?
Enjoy!
Shrimp Egg Roll Bowls
Servings: 4
Calories: 228kcal
Ingredients
- 1/2 head cabbage, shredded
- 2 large carrots, shredded
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 1/4 onion, chopped
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 lb fully cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried ginger
- 2 tbsp coconut oil (or cooking fat of choice)
Instructions
- Heat the coconut oil over medium heat in a large skillet or wok. Sauté the onion and celery until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cabbage & carrots, and continue to sauté for 7-8 minutes, or until the veggies are tender.
- Stir in the spices, coconut aminos, and cooked shrimp, and continue to cook until fragrant & warmed through (another 2-3 minutes).
- Divide into bowls, and serve topped with Sriracha or extra coconut aminos. Enjoy!
Notes
P.S.– Feel free to fancy this recipe up. You can sub ground pork for the shrimp, add extra spices, toss in some green onions or bean sprouts, etc. I just tend to err on the side of simplicity. Use this as a guide!

January 2, 2017 at 4:16 amI need soy sauce in may life…….. but then again, I shouldn't. I make something like this, but we serve it with egg roll chips. Instead of wrapping the egg roll filling with a wrapper and frying it in the oil, we just take a couple of wrappers, cut them into triangles and fry for a minute or two in hot oil. They don't take on as much oil and they stay crisp and delicious instead of being soggy and saggy. A few chips goes a long way with a bowl of filling and some yummy Jasmine rice. Might not be paleo, but then I'm not on a paleo diet, so I don't care.
