Hi everyone, I’m a 50-year-old woman who started dieting again this year after regaining lost weight. Because of work, I have little time to cook, so lunch is usually my main meal. For about 5 months I’ve been eating hwe dup bap almost every day to keep things light and veggie-focused, but I’m getting tired of it. I sometimes crave bread or snacks late at night, but I still want healthy, vegetable-based Korean meal ideas for lunch besides hwe dup bap. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

A couple options that would involve cooking when you do have time and keeping the leftovers in the fridge. And then microwaving when you are reading to eat.
– Japchae: glass noodles (referred to Korean stores and recipes as sweet potato noodles) and veggies stir fried together
– Doenjang jjigae: soybean paste stew that is also loaded with vegetables
This is one of the Korean meals that I think more people need to know about. They should be marketed as “Korean Sashimi Bowls” and I think they’d be very popular. Where do you go for yours? I like Arado.
스위트 & 딜리셔스. looks good
Kimbap is veggie-packed, can even be vegan.
Sanchae bibimbap, Namul bibimbap, Gondrae bibimbap… all bibimbaps are.
My pick this season is yeolmu boribap and yeolmu bibim guksu.
Al bap (bibimbap with fish eggs)
Ngl thought that was butterflied brains — raw — on a salad
