What is it?
Bibimbap (bi bim bap) – sounds exactly as it is spelled, is a popular Korean rice dish filled with tasty vegetables and scrumptious proteins. It is one of the most easiest dishes to whip up yet super appealing to the eyes. You can add any types of vegetables that you like, as well as picking your choice of proteins.
This dish can be vegetarian or even vegan friendly. For the recipe, I am tried Beyond Beef and my seasoning made it tastes even more delicious. Check out my quick recipe and don’t forget to try it yourself!

If you don’t like spicy, I recommend you using soy sauce instead.
To make this dish vegan friendly, skip the egg and select a plant based proteins.
