You know those days when you have NO idea what to make for a weeknight dinner?

How to make Egg Roll in a Bowl with Pork

1. I start by dicing the pork tenderloin into small pieces. This makes the pork cook up fast and easier to eat. Place the pork in a large skillet with olive oil and cook until done. This takes about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add in garlic, ginger and soy sauce. Then stir in cabbage and shredded carrots. To cut back on chopping, you can use a bag of coleslaw mix.
3. After 3-4 minutes, turn off the heat and top with green onions and sesame oil.
4. Give the mix another stir and serve. We serve ours over brown rice but it is just as delicious without rice.

This egg roll bowl is fast and easy to put together. It makes a great meal for a busy weeknight and leftovers make the perfect lunch for the next day. Sometimes I will even double the recipe and have enough leftover for dinner the next night.
