This is another korean dish , it’s delicious and healthy ! All the vegetables and food source of protein , what more you could ask ?

Chinese Buffet Style Doughnuts
I am sure most of you been to those chinese buffet . It’s everywhere in US . And i know they’re not the healthiest choice of meal , but like i said once in a while probably you end up going there just because that’s the only place that pops in your mind , or just you’re hungry for chinese food . So , every chinese buffet that i’ve been to ( probably about 3 times i went to different ones of buffet the past 5 years ) , they always have these doughnuts .

Mixed Vegetables with Rice
Or in Korean , you can call it Bibimbap . In my opinion , Bibimbap needs a little work , chopping , slicing , etc . And cooking them separately , but i think it really worth the time . It is delicious , and not only that , it’s very healthy too , since it has lots of vegetables and you can always pick the protein of your choice , fish , beef , chicken , pork or even just egg . One thing you need for sure is the hot pepper paste . I don’t think you can find this in regular grocer , you have to get…

Sweet Vanilla Bowknots
This recipe calls for a vanilla beans , except i didn’t have them on hand . As a result , i replaced it with 2 Tbsp. of vanilla extract , and it tasted really vanilla-y ! I love making bread , they make your house smells so good . I made these buns last night , it didn’t take me long to make the bread dough . Instead the regular use of my standing kitchenaid mixer , i ended up using food processor for this . Still i had to finish up to knead the dough manually , since the food processor gets hot too quick . Like i mentioned…
