As usual, I got distracted mid afternoon and forgot to get supper started at a reasonable hour. So once again I was faced with making something in a hurry. I had taken a package of ground beef out of the freezer yesterday so I knew it would be something with beef, but what? Usually my fall back was always spaghetti. It’s quick, everyone likes it, and it’s easy. But I really wasn’t craving spaghetti.
We leave for Vegas in a couple of days so I really should use up some of the things in the fridge so they don’t spoil while we’re gone. Ah ha! I know what we’ll have! Eggroll in a bowl!
I LOVE egg roll in a bowl. It’s delicious and salty and comforting. It makes you feel like you’ve just cheated and eating a decadent meal, but it is completely keto!
But better than that, it’s quick! Super quick! And also super easy, no chopping, no prep work. What could be better?
I started by browning the ground beef. I have made it a few times with ground pork but in our opinions it really is just better with beef. Once the beef was browned I added some minced garlic, minced ginger and some sesame oil. I usually give that a couple of minutes for the garlic and ginger to cook a bit, then I add a bag of coleslaw mix and a bag of cauliflower rice.
We almost always have a bag of coleslaw mix in the fridge. When they go on sale I buy a couple of bags. They are a super quick way to make a stirfry, or this delicious recipe!
Then I added about 3/4 cup of beef stock and put the lid on and let the veggies steam a little bit. Once they are cooked the way we like them I added a little bit of soya sauce and a can of drained water chestnuts. Once the water chestnuts are warmed through it’s ready to serve!
Voila! Super easy! Super fast! And super delicious!
