Recipe: Paleo Egg Roll Bowl

by JJ Virgin on February 24, 2018

In the time it takes to order and pick up takeout, you can make a delicious, healthy version at home!

This Paleo Egg Roll Bowl is free of all the main culprits that cause inflammation, including gluten, dairy, and soy. It also leaves out the added sugar and preservatives that are so often a part of restaurant meals.

Instead of a deep-fried egg roll wrapper, you get all the delectable fillings, including your choice of chicken or pork and plenty of metabolism-boosting veggies. In addition to the usual cabbage and carrot, this recipe features mushrooms and zucchini for added fiber and nutrients.

Not only will you feel better after eating it, it tastes better, too – there’s plenty of delicious, fresh flavors, including sesame, ginger, and garlic. Best of all, it’s done in under 30 minutes, so you can get on with your night!

If you’re not eating Paleo, feel free to have your bowl with a serving of gluten-free, corn-free noodles or brown rice for added fiber and protein. You can also tailor the amount of chile flakes to your own taste. Enjoy!
