This has seriously been my go-to bowls all summer long!

And yes, for those of you wondering, Chiberia has officially transitioned into the hottest summer ever. So hot, we took Butters to the best ever corgi pool pawty to cool off!

But aside from baby corgis, shark fin life vests, and floating corgi butts, can we talk about these bomb power bowls?

Sitting on a bed of farro, we have everyone’s favorite Korean beef made with crumbled ground beef (but you can substitute ground turkey or chicken if you prefer), caramelized kimchi, shredded cabbage, and avocado slices drizzled with my favorite Sriracha mayo.

If you have a lower tolerance for heat but love love Sriracha, I would add a little less, and add more, to taste.

You can even make this ahead of time and hold off on the avocado slices to make this the perfect meal prep for the entire week. That’s basically what I did for the last 2 weeks!
