I grew up eating meat jun all the time. Never in the home, but man oh man was it aways at least half of my Korean plate lunch that I’d get as a splurgy lunch. (The other half as usually kal-bi). Pile this up along side heaps of white rice, a ton of banchan (kimchi, panjeon – veggie pancake, and those vinegary potatoes for me please!) and it is basically my dream lunch. But what to do when there isn’t any nearby? Make homemade meat jun!
Having lived in Hawaii and the Pacific Northwest, I have been lucky to always have easy access to fresh salmon. It is my favorite fish to cook at home because I find it to be forgiving, and it doesn’t require very many other ingredients because it has such a rich flavor itself. This 15 Minute Baked Salmon is my go to recipe for a quick weeknight dinner.
Rice krispie treats. Such a simple, satisfying, yummy bar of goodness. They are one of those things that I don’t usually crave, or even think about, but if I am reminded of their existence, I get really excited about them. This recipe for brown rice rice krispie treats really isn’t anything too wild or out there, but man does it satisfy a rice cereal treat craving!
Ah quinoa. One of those foods that we just can’t get enough of. I always need some sort of grain/seed/starch with my dinner to round out the other yummy things on the plate, and lately, I’ve been opting more and more for quinoa. There are so many different and easy ways to cook it, but this lemon parsley quinoa has become a household staple.
I have a thing for cheese. Hard cheeses, soft cheeses, creamy cheeses, stinky cheeses, mild cheeses…I think you get the picture. One of my favorite decadent cheese indulgences though is baked brie. It’s so creamy, flavorful, rich, and it fits as either an appetizer before a meal, or a dessert following a meal. This Cranberry Blood Orange Topped Baked Brie will tickle your tastebuds.
