My friend Kay suggested this old Weight Watcher's recipe for Egg Roll in a Bowl. I made it yesterday for lunch and we loved it. This recipe is a great way to get a healthy and delicious meal on the table quickly. The Asian flavors enhance the dish, which is packed with protein and vegetables. You can also add extra veggies like thinly sliced red bell peppers, and mushrooms to the mix.
