BBQ steak mini pizzas with kimchi

KIMCHI! The newest foodie trend. In simplest terms, it’s spicy pickled cabbage. It’s a Korean staple and is also known to have many health benefits! Sign. me. UP!

I love mixing spicy and sweet. It’s my ultimate go-to. The heat from the kimchi + the tangy BBQ + sweet, juicy pineapple is out of this worrrrrld! The jicama was a last minute add on for some crunch and I think it was well worth it ;)
