Egg rolls in a bowl

#### Instructions

1. **Cook the Ground Meat:**
– In a large skillet or wok, heat **1 tablespoon of olive oil** over medium-high heat.
– Add the **ground pork** (or your choice of ground meat) and cook, breaking it up into crumbles with a spoon, until browned and cooked through (about **5-7 minutes**).
– Remove the cooked meat from the skillet and set it aside. Drain any excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet for cooking the vegetables.

2. **Sauté the Vegetables:**
– In the same skillet, add **1 tablespoon of sesame oil** and heat it over medium-high heat.
– Add the **diced onion**, and sauté for about **2-3 minutes** until softened.
– Add the **minced garlic** and **grated ginger**, and sauté for another **1 minute**, allowing the flavors to develop.
– Stir in the **shredded cabbage** and **shredded carrots**, and cook for about **5-6 minutes** until the cabbage softens and begins to wilt. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

3. **Combine the Meat and Vegetables:**
– Return the cooked ground meat to the skillet with the vegetables.
– Add the **soy sauce** and **rice vinegar**, stirring to combine all the ingredients. Continue cooking for another **2-3 minutes**, letting the flavors meld together. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding extra soy sauce, ginger, or vinegar if needed.

4. **Serve and Garnish:**
– Once everything is well mixed and cooked, remove the skillet from heat.
– Serve your **Egg Rolls in a Bowl** immediately, garnished with **green onions**, **sesame seeds**, and a drizzle of **Sriracha** or **hot sauce** if you like a little heat.

#### Tips for Success

– **Customize the Protein:** While ground pork is the most traditional choice for egg rolls, you can easily swap it for ground turkey, chicken, beef, or even tofu for a vegetarian version.
– **Make it Spicy:** If you like your egg rolls with a little kick, try adding some **Sriracha** or **crushed red pepper flakes** to the mixture, or drizzle the sauce on top for extra heat.
– **Get Creative with Veggies:** You can add extra veggies like bell peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini for more texture and flavor. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time so they don’t overcook.
– **Use Gluten-Free Soy Sauce:** For a gluten-free version, substitute **coconut aminos** for soy sauce. It’s a great alternative that still gives the dish a similar umami flavor.
– **Meal Prep-Friendly:** This dish is perfect for meal prep. Simply store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat it in the microwave or on the stovetop.
