Chinese new year that is...! yesterday was the chinese new year! Why am I excited? Because I made chinese food! There's nothing like yummy chinese food all decked out with MSG..that dandy little ingredient that makes everything taste like heaven! I found a couple of chinese recipes that I've managed to make much healthier (minus the MSG and other unhealthy items!) and it actually tastes better than going to the restaurant!!! Last nite I made fried rice...only I used brown rice and no butter or oil and you literally boil the rice and throw it in the frying pan with some sauteed peas, carrots and green onion, some egg and a splash of soy sauce and you're good to go. Lee loved it...this about the third time I made it but last nite was perfect! I also made spicy schezuan (spelling??) and it was FABULOUS! It was a lot of ingredients but basically pretty easy and fun to make! AND it only takes about 5 or 10 mins! It was such a hit...i used shrimp but you can use chicken and it tastes exactly like general tso's only ten times healthier! We are all about our new found recipes and probably will never have the urge to eat chinese food OUT again...PHEW! This Friday, Hope and I are supposed to hang out and she said "I'm craving chinese!" I said perfect we're going to make it!! she said "HUH?" like i was crazy! If anyone wants the recipe let me know! lata! :)
