Cooking Instructions
  1. Cook the rice according to package instructions, approximately 15-20 minutes.
  2. While the rice is cooking, heat a pan over medium heat, add the ground beef, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant. Mix in the soy sauce.
  4. Add the mixed vegetables to the same pan. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until tender.
  5. Fry the egg in a separate small pan until the whites are set but yolk remains runny.
  6. In a bowl, layer the cooked rice, seasoned beef, sautéed vegetables, and top with the fried egg.
  7. Drizzle sesame oil over the top, add gochujang to taste, and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
  8. Mix everything together in your bowl until well combined. Enjoy!

Notes

For substitutions, replace ground beef with ground chicken or turkey for a leaner option, or tofu/tempeh for a vegetarian dish. To save time, use leftover rice or pre-cut vegetables. Avoid overcooking the veggies to keep them vibrant and crunchy.
