Vegan Buddha Bowl ( And My Korean Inspiration)

Advertisement
Tough to find someone who can forgive a serving of delicious fried rice. No wonder it has spawned so many variations. And so when I had this bottle of perfectly ripened Kimchi sitting in the fridge for the last two months, I just had to try this Kimchi fried rice.
Super quick to make when you a day old rice in the fridge. Crisp up some tofu and add twice the quantity of vegetables to turn it into a balanced Buddha bowl. Nirvana guaranteed!!
