So, I mentioned this above, but in case you glanced over that quickly, the difference between our recipe and most other egg roll in a bowl recipes in that ours uses fresh cabbage and carrots. Most other recipes just use bagged coleslaw, which is just green cabbage and carrots. Some will add red cabbage as well. The main difference is that bagged coleslaw mix is already chopped up for you. So that saves you a lot of time. But, you're paying for this convenience, and a bag of coleslaw will cost you more than a head of cabbage and a bag of carrots will. And since I'm super frugal all the time, I'd rather spend less and chop ingredients myself. Plus, the larger slices of carrots taste so much better in this recipe than the small carrot shreds do.
