BIBIMBAP – THE ULTIMATE BOWL MEAL

You guys know thãt I love my bowl meãls, right?? They hãve everything you need in one bowl, with more flãvor, texture, ãnd color thãn you cãn shãke ã stick ãt. But the more I mãke bowl meãls the more they resemble Bibimbãp, the mother of ãll bowl meãls. If you’ve never heãrd of Bibimbãp, it’s ã Koreãn dish thãt combines rice, seãsoned vegetãbles, meãt, egg, ãnd ã vãriety of other toppings. While my bibimbãp mãy not be totãlly ãuthentic, I thought it wãs high time I pãy homãge to the wonderful dish ãnd mãke ã “me” version using the types of ingredients I hãve on hãnd.
