How to Make Unstuffed Eggroll

This quick and easy recipe features the familiar flavors of a Chinese takeout eggroll, but without the added grease from deep frying. This is a great low-carb entree on its own, or serve over a grain, like brown rice or quinoa, or over cauliflower rice.

My favorite food is Chinese food. When I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and a diabetic my whole world of eating had to change, including no more Chinese food (too much sodium). When I found this recipe, I was so happy and to top it off all the ingredients were on sale at my local market for that week. I decided to give it a try. So glad I did, my husband and I both like it. We liked it so much we had it again the following week when our son was home and he loved it too. This is defiantly a keeper.

Definitely delicious. I used more soy sauce and ginger than was recommended. I just like lots of seasoning. But this was super good.

i tried this and it was good. i used a bit of ground ginger for the cloves{as i was unable to find them at my local grocery store} the 16 oz coleslaw mix was a bit much so i only used 1/2 of the bag. and it was more than enough for 2 of us. i will defintly be making this again
