We don’t like to waste food in our house, so I’m always looking for new ways to use leftovers.

Normal kimbap (also spelled gimbap, 김밥) is a delicious and healthy meal or appetizer option filled with your favorite veggies, optional egg or meat, and usually pickled yellow radish rolled into seaweed with steamed rice.

Nothing beats a good one-sheet meal, especially on weeknights when you’re short on time and maybe lacking the desire to cook at all. This chicken & potato dish is super simple, just toss it all in a pan and pop it in the oven. My kind of dish! In Turkish it is called tavuklu patates. Continue Reading…
