Lazy egg rolls are a quick and easy way to enjoy the flavors of traditional egg rolls without all the work. These egg rolls are made with wonton wrappers, which are thin and delicate, and can be found in the Asian section of most grocery stores. The filling for lazy egg rolls is typically made with ground pork, cabbage, carrots, and other vegetables, and can be seasoned with a variety of sauces and spices. Once the filling is prepared, it is simply spooned onto the wonton wrappers, rolled up, and fried or baked until crispy. Lazy egg rolls are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or snack.

Steps:
- In a wok or skillet, stir-fry the ginger and garlic in 2 tablespoons of oil until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add scallions, carrots, and red pepper and stir-fry over high heat for 2 minutes.
- In a bowl, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, and sugar. Add the Napa cabbage and broth mixture. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft. Add sesame oil, cool for at least 15 minutes, and strain. Fold in the minced shrimp.
- Fill and roll the egg roll wrappers, using 1 tablespoon of filling for each roll. Working with 1 wonton wrapper at a time, place the wrapper with one corner of the diamond closest to you. Place 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Roll the corner closest to you over the filling. Brush the top corner with water. Fold in the sides of the wonton and continue rolling the egg roll up until it is closed. Press to seal, set aside, and continue with the remaining ingredients.
- In a skillet set over moderately high heat, heat the remaining oil and saute the egg rolls until golden brown on all sides, using tongs to turn them. Serve when cool enough to eat, with dipping sauce.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl.

PORK AND VEGETABLE BOWL
Here's what to make if you are craving an egg roll but want to cut back on the carbs. Think crunchy vegetables, savory pork and a sweet, tangy sauce-plus some ingredients not found in an egg roll to round the bowl out. Be gentle and slowly fold in the cabbage when you add it to the pan; it will seem full at first but will eventually wilt down. This recipe comes together quickly so be sure to have all the ingredients prepped before you begin.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, scallion whites, bell pepper, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables just start to soften but are still bright in color, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until just softened, about 1 minute. Add the pork, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, breaking up the pork with a spoon and stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in the chicken broth, 2 tablespoons of the honey, 2 tablespoons of the vinegar, soy sauce and 1 pinch of red pepper flakes, then gently fold in the cabbages and bring to a simmer. Continue to cook, stirring carefully so that the cabbage doesn't fall out of the pan, until the liquid is completely absorbed and the cabbage is wilted and softened, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon vinegar and pinch of red pepper flakes together in a small bowl. Divide the pork mixture among 4 bowls and spoon 1 tablespoon honey sauce over the top. Sprinkle with the scallion greens and sesame seeds and drizzle with sriracha if using.

Tips:
- Use wonton wrappers instead of egg roll wrappers: They are thinner and easier to work with, making them a great option for beginners.
- Prepare your vegetables in advance: Chop and dice your vegetables before you start assembling the egg rolls, so you can easily add them to the mixture.
- Don't overfill the egg rolls: Too much filling will make them difficult to wrap and seal. Aim for about 1/4 cup of filling per egg roll.
- Seal the egg rolls tightly: Use a little water or egg wash to seal the edges of the egg rolls, so they don't come apart during cooking.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the pan: When frying the egg rolls, don't crowd the pan, as this will cause them to cook unevenly.
