Servings: 4 servings
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Cook Time 15 minutes mins
Total Time 25 minutes mins
- 1 pound ground sausage
- ½ medium sweet onion about ½ cup, diced
- ⅓ cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1 Tablespoon minced roasted garlic
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 13 ounce bag coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage carrots)
- 3 Tablespoons green onions sliced (optional garnish)
Brown your sausage. In a large, deep skillet over medium heat, add your sausage. Break the sausage up with a spatula and allow it to brown (about 10 minutes). Drain the grease from the pan.
Add the onion. Sauté until tender.
Add the coleslaw mix (without the dressing packet) to the skillet and stir until well combined. Set aside.
Prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, make your sauce by whisking together the soy sauce, minced roasted garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Set aside.
Combine. Pour the sauce into the skillet and stir, continuing to cook for about 5 minutes or until the cabbage has wilted, but still has a slight crunch.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve while still warm.
Storage Instructions:
If you’re lucky enough to have leftover egg roll in a bowl, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keep your leftovers refrigerated for 3-4 days. Any longer than that and you’ll want to transfer them to the freezer.
How can I reheat this dish?
You can reheat your egg roll in a bowl by adding 1-2 teaspoons of oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add your leftovers to the hot skillet and cook for 5-10 minutes until warmed. If you want to eat a little faster, you can add individual servings to a microwave-safe plate and microwave for 2 minutes or until warmed throughout.
Can I make this ahead of time and freeze it?
This recipe works great to make ahead of time for your freezer stash. Allow your egg roll in a bowl to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag. You can freeze this for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, thaw in the refrigerator and heat in a skillet for 10-12 minutes or until warmed throughout.
