I love yukhoe, and so does my husband, so we make it from time to time. However, because we have different calorie allowances, I usually enjoy the yukhoe by itself while giving my husband some extra carbs. So I thought, why not turn this yukhoe […]
I craved dry hotpot the other day, so I made this, and it hit the spot at just the right time. I love Chinese sesame paste (芝麻酱) so much, but I know it’s not very calorie-friendly, which means I can’t have a lot of it. […]
This is one of my favourite lazy meals when I’m on a calorie deficit. It takes just 5 minutes to make, is packed with protein, and keeps me feeling full with barely any cooking. I especially love this combo when I’m close to my period! […]
Kimbap is one of the most nostalgic foods for Koreans. The problem is, it takes quite a bit of time and effort to make. Whenever I make kimbap, I feel like I need to make at least 10 rolls to make all that preparation worth […]
I’ve made this Bulgogi Bagel for my friends and for Lee many times – and it’s always a hit! It’s definitely on the higher-calorie side, so it may not be the best option if you’re in a calorie deficit. But if you’re eating at maintenance […]

I actually made this banana bread because I had some leftover Kodiak cake mix sitting around. But don’t worry! You can still make it with regular pancake mix (no baking powder needed) or even cake flour. It will be a little lower in protein, but […]
I’m not the biggest fan of yaki udon, mostly because I’m not a huge fan of dishes that use a lot of oil! But if yaki udon is made this way, I could honestly eat it every day. It’s high in protein, macro-friendly, and easy […]
I kind of wanted to make something with a Chinese hint of flavour, but still healthy. So I made this dish with whatever ingredients I have a home. I don’t even know what to call this dish, but I added lots of nutritious ingredients and […]
If you’re looking for a high-volume soup that’s perfect for cutting, this is another creamy, high-protein, low-fat option that feels really comforting and satisfying. It pairs perfectly with toasted bread, so I highly recommend enjoying it with a hot bowl of soup if you have […]
