	Grilled Sweet Potatoes with Sesame Sauce by John Spottiswood This is a delicious healthy grilled side or main dish.

	Dubu Kimchi 두부 김치 (Tofu w Sauted Kimchi) by jason kim Like many weekend nights, we try to make something extra special after the kids go to sleep (usually something with more spice and kick to it) and this time we made some delicious dubu kimchi (tofu with sauteed kimchi).
