The deconstructed egg roll is everything you like about these delicious appetizers but served as a meal. Pork, vegetables, and seasonings are mixed together for a hearty dish.
This dish is much easier, and healthier than traditional egg rolls. No need to fumble around with delicate egg roll wrappers and no deep-frying involved.
You can mix and match the vegetables you put in the dish. Try adding well-drained water chestnuts, bean sprouts, or coleslaw mix (instead of chopping carrots and cabbage).
