KOREAN BEEF Power Bowls
Chiberia is officially experiencing the hottest summer in history. We took Butters and the corgi to the best pool party ever to cool down!
Can we talk about these power bowls instead of baby corgis?
On a bed farro, we serve everyone’s favorite Korean Beef made from crumbled Beef (you can also use ground turkey or even chicken), caramelized Kimchi, shredded lettuce, and slices of avocado drizzled with Sriracha Mayo.
You can add a little more or less Sriracha to your taste if you are a person who is not a fan of heat.
This is a great meal to prepare for the whole week. You can make it ahead and skip the avocado slices. This is what I’ve been doing for the past two weeks.
