What Goes Into an Egg Roll Bowl?

The sky’s the limit for what you can add to your egg roll bowl. If it’s in your favorite egg roll, it can be included. Here’s some ideas.

• Ground pork – note this will be higher in points and calories.
• Ground turkey sausage – this is more reasonable in points.

• Finely chopping broccoli – 0 points
• Chopped nuts – additional points
• Sriracha sauce – 0 points
• Sesame seeds – additional points

How Do I Make an Egg Roll Bowl?

An egg roll bowl can be made in an Instant Pot or on the stove top.

To make Instant Pot Egg Roll Bowl:

1. Brown meat in the bottom of the pot on sauté mode until meat is no longer pink.
2. Top with seasoning and vegetables of choice. Pour a small amount of chicken broth over.
3. Set pressure cooker to “manual” and 0 minutes.
4. Quick release, stir, and serve.

How Do I Make Egg Roll Wrapper Chips?

While egg roll wrapper chips are optional, these add an amazing crunch and make this dinner especially fun to eat. My kids go crazy for these!

We use Freida’s egg roll wrappers which are 2 points per item.

1. Cut each egg roll wrapper into 8 pieces. A pizza cutter works great for this.
2. Lay egg roll wrapper chips on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
3. Lightly spray tops of wrappers and sprinkle with salt.
4. Bake at 400 degrees for 4 minutes.
5. Turn chips over and bake 1 minute more.

WW Zero Point Egg Roll in a Bowl with Ground Turkey

Savor your favorite egg roll flavors for a fraction of the points with our delish (and easy to make) egg roll in a bowl.

Gather ingredients. This recipe can be made in the Instant Pot or on the stove top. Dice mushrooms and water chestnuts into smaller pieces if preferred. (I did since it makes it easier to eat and more like an egg roll filling.)

For WW members, it’s important to purchase ground turkey or chicken breast which is the most lean and lowest in points.

Here are a few helpful tips about browning ground chicken or turkey breast:

• First spray the pan or Instant Pot with cooking spray.
• Add a bit of chicken or beef broth to prevent sticking.
• Add a splash of Worcestershire or soy sauce to give it a darker color and more flavor.

Brown ground turkey or chicken until no longer pink. Add a bit of chicken broth to keep it moist.

Once chicken is browned, top with soy sauce, seasonings, water chestnuts and mushrooms. Pour in remaining chicken broth, then top with coleslaw mix.

You’ll notice that our recipe calls of 2 bags of coleslaw mix instead of the usual 1 bag that most recipes use. One of my 100+ pound weight loss secrets is doubling the vegetables in almost every recipe I use.

The Instant Pot will be full so you might need to pack it down a bit but it will cook down quite a lot so this isn’t a problem.

Set your Instant Pot at zero minutes. (Yes, this really is a thing.) This cooks your egg roll filling at the perfect amount of time.

While the egg roll filling is cooking, make the egg roll chips. Cut each egg roll wrapper into 8 pieces. A pizza cutter works great for this. We used Freida’s egg roll wrappers which are 2 points per item, making 8 chips = 2 points.

Lay egg roll wrapper chips on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Lightly spray tops of wrappers and sprinkle with salt. Bake at 400 degrees for 4 minutes. Turn chips over and bake 1 minute more.

Important: Watch chips carefully as they will burn easily.

These chips are addictive and very low in points so you can enjoy them with your meal. My family goes nuts for these and I always have to portion mine out to be sure I get some before they are gobbled up.

When your Instant Pot beeps, immediately and carefully release the pressure (manual release) and stir.

Now it’s time to eat! Divide the mixture into bowls and serve with chips for dipping if desired.

Dig in and enjoy!
