Textured soy protein and a pear-soy bulgogi marinade form the core of this 10-ounce frozen meal. The sauce includes soy sauce, pear puree, garlic, ginger, green onion, and sugar, and it’s made in South Korea. Bulgolgi, which means “fire meat,” usually refers to thin-sliced beef grilled over high heat, so the soy pieces here are built to echo that chewy, lightly fibrous bite. Compared with other Trader Joe’s frozen entrées, this one leans more on sauce and seared protein than on vegetables or starches. It’s vegan, and it cooks in a few minutes in a skillet or microwave.
