I love that you figured out the carbs for this -- that is so helpful for this mama of a son with Type 1 Diabetes. We always need to know the carbs so my son can give himself the correct dose of insulin.
Irina
I'm glad the nutritional information for egg roll bowls was helpful to you and your son. I can't wait to hear what you think if you make it

Have you ever doubled it? If so do you keep the liquids the same? I've tried and it was too wet so that's what I'm thinking but looking for a tried and true. My kids and hubby devour this, one batch would not cut it!
Thanks!
Irina
Yes I have doubled it... used a large packet of meat from bjs and large coleslaw mixture
.. but you're right, you need to keep liquid the same or else it gets too wet... you can apply more of the spices though to distribute the taste... my kids love it too but they make their own wraps
Diane
Can you use a crock pot if you don't have an Instapot?
Irina
Yes. However, I have not tried them in a crockpot. Not sure about the timing
