What Is In Crack Slaw or Eggroll In A Bowl?

This is a popular low carb recipe made with ground beef and cabbage, as well as other vegetables. It is definitely not your Mama's slaw recipe.

Below is a list of ingredients, as well as substitutions, that would work well in this Eggroll In a Bowl (Crack Slaw) recipe. Scroll down to the bottom of the blog post to view the printable recipe card that has specific amounts of each ingredient.

• Ground Beef, Ground Pork, Ground Chicken, or Ground Turkey. Pick your protein. Beef, Pork, Chicken or Turkey will work. I used 85% lean ground beef. You could also combine beef and pork for a different twist.
• Coleslaw Mix. Shredded cabbage is an ingredient. As a shortcut, I used a packaged coleslaw mix that has shredded cabbage, red cabbage, and some shredded carrots. Broccoli slaw, made of shredded broccoli, could also be used as well. It would give it a little more crunchy texture. If your package of coleslaw mix includes a package for a sauce, do NOT use that in this recipe.
• Shredded Carrots. To add additional color and nutrition, I add 1/2 cup additional shredded carrots to the coleslaw. You could also add other vegetables as well, such as red or green bell peppers.
• Oil.use sesame oil, if you have it. Otherwise, you can use olive oil, avocado oil or your favorite oil to cook the onions, garlic, and ground beef. Sesame oil has a very unique flavor. However, unless you plan to use it in other recipes, I don't recommend going out to buy it just for the small amount used in this Eggroll In A Bowl (Crack Slaw) recipe.
• Onion. Chopped onion is added to the ground beef.
• Garlic. Two cloves of garlic are minced and added to the ground beef.
• Ginger.I recommend using fresh ginger. However, ground ginger could be substituted.
• Soy Sauce.Soy sauce gives this recipe a lot of flavor. You can use gluten-free soy sauce or Coconut Aminos, which is a healthy gluten-free alternative to soy sauce.
• Rice Vinegar.Often combined with soy sauce in Asian dishes, it is sweeter than most other vinegar. If you don't have it, try using apple cider vinegar or white vinegar as a substitute.
• Sriracha. Sriracha is a unique hot sauce often used in Asian dishes. If you don't have it, you can use another type of chili garlic sauce or any type of hot sauce you like.
• Green Onions. Chop a couple of green onions to add as a garnish on top of the Eggroll In A Bowl (Crack Slaw).
• Sesame Seeds. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of sesame seeds over the top of the dish before serving,
