Bowl Ideas

  • 3 cups cooked rice / cauliflower rice make ahead of time in bone broth - 1 1/2 cups dry rice
  • `1 lb grass fed ground beef can sub tempeh/ tofu or other protein
  • 1 whole sweet onion diced
  • 1-2 lbs broccoli florets steamed or blanched
  • 2 whole organic carrots sliced with a peeler nice and thin
  • 5 medium turnips/ radishes optional - sliced thin with a mandolin
  • 4-8 tbsp kimchi optional - homemade or store bought

Bulgogi Sauce

  • 2 cloves garlic grated or minced
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp korean / red chili flakes
  • 2 tbsp tamari / soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp miso paste

Instructions
 

  • If you do not have your rice cooked start that now as you chop veggies. Cook according to package - I like to sub my water with broth. If cooking cauliflower rice I like to use 1/4 cup coconut milk to add some fat and make it fluffy.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Mix together your sauce in a small bowl with a whisk.
  • Add your beef and onions to the hot pan and brown. With grass fed meat there shouldn't be much fat - so you can leave in the extra fat or drain. Turn off the heat and add in half of your sauce to the meat and onion mixture. Toss to coat.
  • Prep your veggies and lay them out for assembly. Cut and steam broccoli. Shred / peel carrots. Mandolin your turnips/ radishes. Warm up your rice of choice. I like a chili onion crunch (from TJ's) and seaweed slices, sesame seeds as a garnish.
  • Assemble your bowls! drizzle leftover sauce over the top of your bowl. Don't forget kimchi perfect crunch and spice factor!.
