Egg Roll Soup Bowl
Souped, not fried!
If the thought of an un-fried egg roll chips away a tiny piece of your soul, hear me out. An egg roll in soup form is crazy delish.
Also, you can’t really fry soup so…
Let’s Spoon
You might be a fan of the very popular egg roll inna bowl concept that is basically egg roll filling fried in a skillet. I am also a fan, but I’ve put my dry egg roll bowl on pause because egg roll soup is what my cold bones are craving at the moment.
Hot soup with zero guilt? Gimmie.
This soup has a boatload of vegetation, plus the sweet and spicy kick of ginger and crushed red pepper. For all my vegetarian pals out there, it also has hunks of organic tofu for tons of protein with very few carbs (hooray!) or you could sub your fave protein if tofu isn’t your jam.
Other things this soup has:
- A ton of vitamins
- Lots-o-fiber ๐ฉ
- Probably antioxidants
- Street cred
And a bunch of other great things!
Let’s get some.
Vegetarian Egg Roll Soup
{Low Carb & Vegan!}
Unwrapped, unrolled, and ready to slurp!
Pin It! ๐
Bean Sprouts ๐ might not be “necessary” but they
give this soup something extra.
I use fresh but you could totally crack open a can and toss it in.
Just drain it’s briny liquid first.
I also have no shame in using pre-minced garlic and ground ginger.
I have other important things to do.
I can’t be chopping and grating
things forever.
I shredded my own cabbage but only because I saved so much time
not chopping garlic…
Look how brothy and beautiful!
I hope someday I too can be described as brothy and beautiful. #goals

It's like an egg roll in a bowl...of soup!

Notes
*I used pre-cubed tofu that does not need to be pressed. If using a block of tofu, wrap the block in a clean towel and gently press the water out. Dice and continue!
**I love a strong broth on the saltier side but if you prefer a more mild broth, 1/8 cup Liquid Aminos is for you!
