### Ingredients for Low Carb Egg Roll Soup

– **1 lb ground pork** (or ground chicken or turkey for a leaner option)
– **1 tablespoon sesame oil** (or olive oil)
– **4 cups chicken broth** (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version)
– **3 cups shredded cabbage** (Napa cabbage or regular cabbage works)
– **1 small onion**, diced
– **3 cloves garlic**, minced
– **1 tablespoon fresh ginger**, grated (or 1 teaspoon ground ginger)
– **3 tablespoons soy sauce** (or tamari for gluten-free)
– **1 teaspoon rice vinegar** (optional, for a tangy kick)
– **1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes** (optional, for spice)
– **1 tablespoon chili paste** or **Sriracha** (optional, for extra heat)
– **2 green onions**, sliced (for garnish)
– **1 tablespoon sesame seeds** (optional, for garnish)
– **Salt and pepper**, to taste

### How to Make Low Carb Egg Roll Soup

#### Step 1: Brown the Ground Meat
Start by heating **sesame oil** (or olive oil) in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the **ground pork** (or your preferred ground meat) to the pot. Cook it until browned and crumbled, about **5-7 minutes**. Stir occasionally to break it apart. Once browned, season with a little salt and pepper to taste. Remove any excess fat if needed.

#### Step 2: Sauté the Aromatics
Add the **diced onion**, **minced garlic**, and **grated ginger** to the pot with the ground meat. Stir them into the meat and cook for another **2-3 minutes** until the onions soften and the mixture becomes fragrant. The ginger will infuse the soup with a nice, warm, aromatic flavor.

#### Step 3: Add the Broth and Cabbage
Pour in the **chicken broth** and bring the mixture to a simmer. Once it’s simmering, add the **shredded cabbage** to the pot. Stir it in and let it cook for **5-7 minutes**, or until the cabbage is tender but still has a slight crunch. The cabbage will wilt down as it cooks, creating the perfect texture for this soup.

#### Step 4: Season the Soup
Stir in the **soy sauce** (or tamari for gluten-free), **rice vinegar** (if using), and **crushed red pepper flakes** for a bit of spice. Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as needed—add more soy sauce for saltiness, more vinegar for tang, or extra chili paste for more heat. If you want to bring more depth of flavor, you can also add a splash more sesame oil.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Once the soup is simmering and the cabbage is tender, remove the pot from the heat. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly sliced **green onions** and **sesame seeds** for a little extra crunch and flavor. If you love spice, drizzle with a bit more **Sriracha** or **chili paste**.
