Reviewing: Pork & Veggie Bibimbap with Zucchini, Carrots & Jasmine rice 1 serving prepared  Here's what you get: Jasmine rice  Carrots  Ginger  White wine vinegar  Sriracha (I used my big bottle) Ground pork -5 oz used  Scallions  Zucchini  Garlic  Sesame oil  Soy sauce (not used) Tamari (substitution) The rice: I only made a 1/4 cup, using a little over 3/4 cups of water and a tsp rice vinegar it took 15 mins total to cook. The sauce and scallion pickles: Both of these were easy prep and take just a few seconds to put together after the scallions are chopped.

Reviewing: Sesame beef tacos, with quick pickled veggies and chili sour cream  1 serving prepared   Here's what you get: Radish  Scallion  Persian cucumber  Cilantro  Red cabbage  Korean chili flakes  Garlic powder  White wine vinegar  Sour cream  Sesame oil   Substituting: 5 oz Ground Bison Baby level hot sriracha  1/4 cup Rice Tamari sauce  Lime juice  Not used: Soy sauce  Actual hot sriracha  Flour tortilla  Ground Beef  The pickles: Pickled veggies were very quick prep I would suggest adding the vinegar and sugar together and stirring them until the sugar dissolves.

The protein: I substituted the ground beef for bison in this recipe. Using 5 oz total. The cook on this was relatively easy. I was warned that th...
