Pork bulgogi meatballs with carrots & zucchini over rice

1 serving prepared - heavily modified

Here's what you get:

Zucchini

Ground pork

Sesame oil

Sriracha

Scallions

Shredded carrot

Jasmine rice

Sesame seeds

Extras:

Homemade bulgogi sauce

GF pretzel crumbs

Honey

Tamari

Not pictured/used:

Bulgogi sauce

Panko bread crumbs

Ginger (I didn't receive any)

Lime (I didn't receive any)

The rice:

This went on first. I cooked 1/4 cup of dry rice in 1/2 cup of water with avocado oil and rice vinegar for 15 minutes.

The protein:

The meatballs were prepared a few hours before dinner. I had to substitute with my own bulgogi sauce and gf pretzel crumbs in place of the panko. These were mixed and set to rest in the fridge.

The bulgogi sauce is the same as a previous recipe I made with the addition of pear. Check this out: the Colonel's original recipe

Total cook time on the meatballs was 12 minutes and they were coated with a honey tamari mix during the last two minutes in pan.

The zucchini and carrots:

Because the carrots were shredded they were as quick to cook as the zucchini. I used a little bit of the sesame oil to cook these.

The plate:

Again!

This bulgogi recipe is really good although it's heavily relying on a flavor mix that I've made myself. And I already know that I like the mix that I've made. Either way! This dish works really well, there's nothing I would change about it... besides all of the stuff I had to change about it...

Reviewing: Chicken sausage sweet potato and kale soup. 1 serving prepared Here's what you get: Forgot the cheese! Sweet potato Kale Italian chicken sausage mix Chili flake Yellow onion Italian seasoning Chicken stock concentrate Parmesan cheese Not used: Demi baguette The soup: Per instructions I started by cooking the onion and sausage together until the onions are browned and the sausage was cooked through. Next the sweet potatoes, stock concentrate and spice packet was added along with 1 in 1/4 cup of vegetable broth. After the soup was done simmering for 7 minutes per instruction I put the kale in and let it cook for an additional seven minutes. Side: Since I can't have the baguette I made some GF cheese crackers to go along with the soup today. The process for that will be posted at a later date. The plate: And flat bread - Kris
