This quick and easy paleo shrimp egg roll in a bowl is packed with flavor, veggies and protein!  Served with a spicy aioli, these egg roll bowls are paleo, Whole30 and keto friendly!  Great for weeknight dinners and the leftovers reheat perfectly for lunch the next day.
After experimenting with the “egg roll in a bowl” trend and making this crazy delicious breakfast version, the egg roll in a bowl was quickly thrown into my easy-meal rotation because.
If you’re new to the egg roll in a bowl concept, get excited – it’s super simple and so, so tasty!
Essentially, you’re stir frying up a bunch of yummy ingredients and the finished product tastes like the inside of an egg roll. Â Genius, seriously – whoever came up with this concept!
For this shrimp version, I wanted to go all out. Â I’d just been over a friends house where she served spicy shrimp and tuna rolls with aioli, and I knew I had to go the route of both spicy and seafood!
Since my little guy recently decided he LOVES shrimp (so strange, because he eats almost nothing), I had lots of shrimp ready to go in the freezer and decided to start with that.
What You Need to this Shrimp Egg Roll in a Bowl Recipe
Most grocery stores have lots of pre-mixed shredded veggie blends, so I always choose one of those when making an egg roll in a bowl.
Anytime I can get away with less prep, I’m in! Â You can use a classic slaw mix or one with some different veggies, like brussels sprouts. Â Choose the one that speaks to you!
And of course, if your store doesn’t have slaw mix, you can thinly slice cabbage and mix with shredded carrots to yield the same result.
Here’s everything you’ll need to prepare your egg roll bowls:
Aioli:
- paleo friendly mayo (homemade or store bought)
- minced garlic
- sesame oil
- sriracha or other hot sauce
- fresh lime juice
Stir Fry:
- Shrimp
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Slaw mix (shredded cabbage, carrots, etc.)
- Coconut aminos
- sesame oil
- minced garlic
- minced ginger
- scallions
How to Make Shrimp Egg Roll in a Bowl
I like to have the aioli ready to go so I make it first. Â Simply whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl.
For the stir fry, make sure your shrimp is peeled with tails removed.  Sauté the shrimp over medium high heat in a tablespoon of oil until cooked through, then remove to a plate.
Next, add more oil to the skillet and cook the veggies, the white parts of the scallions, garlic and ginger.
Add in the coconut aminos, sesame oil and hot sauce. Â Stir the shrimp back in to heat through before serving.
Serve in bowls drizzled with the prepared spicy aioli.
Egg Roll in a Bowl Tips
You can definitely make the aioli ahead of time and store it covered in the refrigerator until ready to use. Â Up to 2 days ahead of time should be just fine.
Additionally, you can mince/chop/slice your garlic, ginger, and scallions to save time.
Another huge time saver? Â Cooking the shrimp during meal prep!
These steps take a 30 minute meal down to a 15 minute meal – which often makes all the difference on weeknights for me.
I hope you’re ready to fall in love with a new meal – spicy shrimp egg roll in a bowl!
Grab your ingredients and your favorite skillet because it’s time to cook – let’s go!

Whisk together the mayo, garlic, sesame oil, lime or lemon juice, hot sauce, and cayenne, if using until smooth, refrigerate until ready to use.
Stir Fry the Shrimp and Veggies:

Once the skillet is smoking hot, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook, turning once or twice, for about 2 minutes or until opaque, then remove to a plate and cover while you cook veggies.

I love your breakfast egg roll recipe! All the crunchy veggies are so delicious 🙂
This was so good tasty and very easy to make. I added some chopped broccoli to the slaw too because I had it. Loved it! Thanks.
Made this. Tasty and easy and also still delicious next day.
Thrilled to hear that!
What a cool way to eat an egg roll. We love shrimp egg rolls and also love variety! Now for planning to make them…….
Hope you enjoy!
THIS! Too yummy. Reminded me of a Torchy’s shrimp taco (we have a them in Texas) but much better for me I’m sure. Well done!
My husband and I love this recipe! I make it a lot and it’s always a meal to look forward to!
i made this last night- i was blown away by how delicious it was!
and of course, it was great to do most of the prep work ahead of time.
thank you!!
That’s awesome, happy you enjoyed!
I started whole30 a year ago and have eaten paleo since that was completed. This has become one of my favorite paleo meals! It is soooo good! I’ve added it to my permenant recipe box. Thank you, thank you, for making paleo Living so yummy!
I think the fat amount is way off on your nutrients.
This is my family’s favorite meal. I am in love!!!! Thank you for this!
Should it be 3 teaspoons of aminos rather than 3 tablespoons? I used 3 tablespoons and it was inedible because it was so salty.
I’m not sure which aminos you used, but with Coconut Secret coconut aminos it wasn’t too salty.
I made this for dinner tonight and it was SOO DELICIOUS!!!!!! Made without any modifications and it was perfect! Thank you!!
Awesome recipe and super simple!! So glad I found your website
Family favorite!
My husband is so excited every time I make this! So good!
I am so loving these egg rolls in a bowl. I do cheat and use lime chipotle Mayo instead. Thanks for the recipe.
I loved it overall. I thought it was a bit oily. I think I’ll try only one Tbsp of sesame oil at the end. Maybe I will use the other to stir fry the veg and just leave out the second Tbsp of coconut oil.
Wow, this was amazingly delicious! For the leftovers, I’m going to season and saute some extra slaw mix so the servings are a bit larger, but this was one of the best dinners I’ve made.
This was a delicious recipe. My husband enjoyed it and asked me to please make it again.
Michele, all your recipes are a hit. Love your baked goods also.
I am 80 years young, and I love to cook and bake.
