Bibimbap - Korean Mixed Rice and Vegetables

This is a crowd-please especially for the kids because they can "build" their own dish. It's been great for guests as well. This is best paired with bulgogi, but really it works with whatever meat and vegetables you might have around.

Ingredients

Meat

Vegetables

  • 250 g spinach (mildly seasoned) (0.6 pounds)
