Vegan Egg Roll in a Bowl

Who doesn’t love an egg roll?  I can never find egg roll wrappers that don’t contain egg so I made this Vegan Egg Roll in a Bowl. It tastes exactly like the filling found in those delectable egg rolls, but without the fried wrappers!  I know typically egg rolls have added meat, so I added the sliced portoblello mushrooms to provide a meaty texture in place of the meat.

If you want to add some extra protein to this stir fry, you can add toasted peanuts or cashews.  Quinoa may be another nice addition.

  1. This looks great. I've been craving egg rolls lately but not only is it hard to find the wrappers without egg, I can't eat the gluten. I was thinking of rolling up the filling in a rice paper sheet and putting it in my air fryer. Wonder if it will get crisp.
  2. I made this for lunch today except I halved it because I only had half a head of cabbage. I also added some cashews and served it with brown rice. It's so delicious!
  3. thank you, it was beyond expectation- I didn't fail it was bland probably because my taste isn't that fine so I might tweak what I did. recipes help me remember how to re-cook good ideas I would've botched making egg roll filling without this page took out garlic, onion, aminos, and portabello, instead using extra sesame oil and several shakes of Trader Joe's 21 seasoning salute, Beyond Meat vegan crumbles, soy sauce, and baby portabello, same number of ounces.

    1. It's a replacement for soy. You can find it on Amazon and also at any health food store where the soy sauce is sold.
  4. The serving size looks generous! I figured out the Weight Watcher points at 4 per serving so I am happy. I can even tweek it a little and stay within my point range for a meal. What are coconut aminos? Thanx
    1. Coconut aminos is a soy free sauce made from coconut. It tastes a lot like soy sauce, so it's used for people who avoid soy and gluten. I love it. If you have no issues with soy or tamari, you can use that as well. :)
  5. This is seriously delicious. I made it this morning to keep in the fridge for snacks, and snack I did... all day. It's really addicting. Great job on this.
    1. Thanks so much. Another fave of ours is this one if you haven't tried it. https://mywholefoodlife.com/2012/11/29/peanut-noodle-stir-fry/
  6. I have heaps and heaps of fresh cabbage from the garden to use - has anyone tried portioning and freezing this dish - if so how does it hold up?
