Bulgogi Chicken Pizza

After recent announcement on more measures to control the COVID-19 spreading in Singapore, our govt reminded us to avoid the peak hours to get the essential items from the supermarket. I decided to visit one of the 24hrs NTUC outlets to get what I need for the week very early in the morning. I am so lucky that I managed to grab 2 boxes of my favorite Farmpride Bulgogi Chicken Burger from the cold shelves. These ready made burgers allow me to prepare delicious food for my loved ones in minutes. It is Trans fat free & good source of protein too.

Stay calm and keep cooking! Personally, I felt it's a good time to have more family meals & time at home too. We can overcome the Virus! #SGunited.
