Ingredient Notes
The perfect dinner starts with using the freshest ingredients, and this eggroll in a bowl Weight Watchers recipe is no different.
- sesame oil
- ground chicken or turkey
- 1 bag pre-shredded cabbage blend - buying a bag of cabbage mix is quickest but you can slice cabbage if preferred
- fresh ginger - we love to buy the Trader Joes frozen minced ginger cubes
- garlic
- soy sauce or Coconut Aminos - soy is most common but coconut aminos is gluten free and tastes just like soy sauce
- green onions
- Sriracha sauce (optional)
Equipment Needed
You'll want to use a non-stick skillet since there's very little oil in this recipe and you don't want it to stick to the pan.
Dietary Adaptions
low carb/keto- you can increase healthy fats if needed by using a ground meat that isn't as low in fat or adding a touch of heart-healthy oil to the pan. 3.9 net carbs per serving, plus 12.7g of fat and a whopping 21.4g of protein.
gluten free- Be sure to use coconut aminos or wheat free tamari sauce instead of soy sauce
paleo/Whole30- Be sure to use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce
How to Make WW Egg Roll in a Bowl
Here we go, my friend! Let's create a flavorful meal that your whole family is sure to love. In just 15 minutes of time we'll be cooking the ground meat, adding the veggies, and seasoning to the same pan and in a flash you have the savory and healthy Weight Watchers egg roll in a bowl recipe.
Cook the Chicken or Turkey
Start by cooking your chicken (or turkey) over medium-high heat until cooked through. This took us about 5-6 minutes. If your meat looks a little greasy feel free to give it a quick drain.
Add the Veggies & Seasoning
Add the bag of shredded cabbage mix, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce or coconut aminos. If mixed cabbage is not your thing, you can easily use just green cabbage - we just prefer the taste of the mix, and the color.
Sauté the mixture for 3-4 mins until the cabbage is cooked through, but still crisp-tender. Keep a good eye on your pan and stir it around frequently so you don't end up with soggy cabbage.
Mix in the green onions and add a little extra as a garnish on the top if desired.
Drizzle with a little sriracha sauce (optional) or make a quick chili sauce by combining a touch of mayo with sriracha to taste to increase the heat factor of this dish.
And there you go! Start to finish, this entire dish takes just 15 minutes!
Recipe Tips
- Prepare all the ingredients before heating the pan or wok. When making a stir-fry, things move quickly. Have everything cut and measured before you start. This step only takes about 5 minutes, especially if you purchase the bag of cabbage.
- Be sure to use a non-stick skillet so the food doesn't stick to the pan
- We prefer to use lean ground chicken or turkey with a little fat in it since it adds more flavor, but if you use very low-fat meat you might need to increase the seasoning to taste a bit.
- While keeping the fat down it might be tempting to skip the sesame oil, a little goes a LONG way and it truly adds so much flavor it's a must-include item.

The Pic at the top shows rice vinegar, but the recipe doesn't mention it. Should I use it or not?
WholeLottaYum says
Thank you Laura! Actually, the recipe does NOT include rice vinegar. I usually test 2-3 recipes at a time and that rice vinegar accidentally got added to the ingredient display but it's not in this recipe. You of course could add a splash if you have it 🙂 I'll redo that photo next time I make it!

What was the rice vinegar for?
