I made this Vegetarian Gochujang Recipe one weekend when we were making some Korean tacos. This Gochujang Slaw is the perfect topping for the tacos. The Vegetarian Gochujang Recipe provides amazing texture and flavor to the tacos! This Vegetarian Gochujang Recipe can be paired with many dishes and is great as a side dish! I love the flavor of Gochujang, and this is a healthy way to enjoy it!
