Egg Roll Bowl Ingredient Options
If you don’t have grains and need a little more carbs, feel free to serve it on white rice. For more protein, add scrambled eggs to the stir-fry to make it more reminiscent of fried rice. Drizzle with toasted sesame oil on top or sprinkle with red chili flakes to heat. Try crunching with sesame seeds, chopped peppers or green onions.
If you don’t have ground beef on hand, pork and ground chicken will also work. This delicious Asian inspired recipe is versatile!
