Guilt Free Kogi Style Tacos
KOGI short rib tacos are literally one of the only fast foods that we crave on a regular basis…the amazing
balance of flavors + textures are a perfect bite. The umami flavors of the bulgogi and the crisp tang of the slaw are really unique when eaten inside a warm corn tortilla. The biggest problem though are the sodium levels + high fat content which make eating them regularly a NO NO. So here’s our revamp to make them healthier while keeping the yumminess. Firstly we’ve switched out fatty short ribs for leaner flank steak. Then we’ve reduced sodium by using low sodium soy sauce + diluting it with water + finally we’ve used stevia as opposed to sugar for the sweetness. Give them a try, you wont be disappointed.
