Eating healthy during quarantine is not easy. First, we have limited access to ingredients. And if we want to purchase from supermarkets, we have to brave the traffic at EDSA (even during quarantine!), and go through safety measures in order to avoid getting infected by the virus.

Good thing, there are many grocery stores that already accept online payments and delivery. Paying using cashless options is safer and more convenient for you and the person who delivers you packages because it reduces the risk of transmitting the virus through cash handling. This is why I prefer paying with PayMaya for my groceries – making cooking healthy food at home easy, safe, and contactless. I used my PayMaya virtual card when I bought ingredients at Metromart for my Healthy Bibimbap.

If you want to try out this healthy and yummy dish, here is the recipe:

Ingredients:

Grated Cauliflower

Chopped Garlic

Sesame Oil

Julienne Carrots

Julienne Cucumber

Julienne Mango

Egg, Sunny Side Up

Sukiyaki Beef

Sesame Seeds

Gojuchang

Procedure:

1.)   Grate Cauliflower and sauté with Sesame Oil, and chopped Garlic. Set aside.

2.)   Sauté Sukiyaki Beef in Sesame Oil, season with Salt and Pepper. Set aside.

3.)   Sauté Carrots in Sesame Oil, season with Salt and Pepper. Set aside.

4.)   Arrange your Healthy Bibimbap in a bowl, having the Cauli-rice on the lower part.

5.)   On top of the cauli-rice, arrange your sautéed Carrots, Cucumber, Sunny-side Up Egg, sautéed Sukiyaki Beef, and  Mango.

6.)   Garnish with Gojuchang, Sesame Seeds, and Leeks.

And there you have it! Your very own Healthy Bibimbap, perfect for your family lunch. If you want to try this out, you can visit Metromart online at www.metromart.com to purchase your ingredients. Like me, you can also use your PayMaya to purchase the ingredients for this dish or just for your groceries, in general.

2.)   Choose credit card as the payment option.
