But I’ve discovered that you can still enjoy flavors from around the world by using simple ingredients from GS25, Korea’s popular convenience store! Today, I’m sharing two of my favorite meal prep ideas that bring a taste of Mexico and Italy right into your Korean kitchen — all while keeping things affordable and easy.
