I sort of out did myself on this one. This was ridiculously good.

First the spring rolls which I have done before; sliced carrots, green onions, sliced canned jalapeños, cilantro, mint, Thai basil, and lime juice, with rice paper that has been dipped quickly in warn water. But I did one thing different this time. I made a sauce by mixing 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, with 1/8 cup yellow mustard and 1/8 cup sriracha and 1/4 cup water to thin it out and work out of a squeeze bottle. This sauce is amazing and is also the sauce on the bowl there.

The bowl, the Bee Bim Bap, was just a mix of everything tasty.

First, bottom layer

Jasmine rice.

Sautéed veggies:

1 zucchini

8 oz mushroom sliced

1 tsp ginger diced

So many flavors, great textures, warm and cold, sweet, spicy, salty, sour.
