Hosting parties is hard.
Now that I’ve officially entered adulthood, gone are the days of “parties” that consist of telling everyone to BYOB and “picking up” is as far as cleaning goes.
Nope. Now that I’m an adult, parties mean scrubbing every inch of the apartment, cooking/baking themed treats, and of course providing refreshments for guests.
And it’s a lot of work.
I hosted a Halloween party this year- complete with spooky sangria, mini mummy pizzas, buffalo chicken dip, Halloween cut-out cookies, and more! Although I spent the better part of the entire week preparing – I’d say it was a success!
Will all that Halloween prep, I needed a quick and easy dinner idea, and this Egg Roll in a Bowl was the perfect one.
Allow me to list all the things I love about this Egg Roll in a Bowl Recipe …

Okay I’ll stop there but just trust me on this – Egg Roll in a Bowl tastes just like the inside of an egg roll, but without the wrapper! Toss everything in one skillet and cook until it’s done. It doesn’t get much easier than that.
