If your choice for Chinese is pork, check out this smarter version of a takeout favorite. Cooks in less time than it takes to order and deliver... and you can pocket the tip.
Add chicken to cheesy mac, then give it a shake of hot sauce, and a favorite side becomes the main attraction at the family table. All in just 25 minutes.
Adapted from Martin Yan's Chinese Cooking for Dummies. This is my favorite stir-fry sauce. It makes enough for two meals. Having extra on hand makes for a quick meal. My son will actually eat vegetables he can dip in the sauce! WARNING about the amount of soy sauce. When I used Kikkoman soy sauce, I found this sauce far too salty. I now use Angostura, which is much lower in salt. When adding soy sauce, start with less than half the amount and slowly add more to taste. Using vegetable broth makes this vegetarian. Yield: 1 3/4 cups (couldn't get that amount entered)
The classic to-go order makes an appearance in your kitchen with this bean-and-cheese burrito with fresh tomatoes and lettuce. Thumbs-up from the fam on this one.
In this case, "jerk" means spicy and succulent chicken infused with cinnamon, cloves and a little cayenne. One bite and you'll swear you feel a slight warm island breeze.
This Chipotle Pork Tenderloin with Plantain and Orange Salsa recipe contains pork tenderloin, plantains, oil, kraft italian dressing, brown sugar and more.
Some days you just need a slow cooker meal...! Love soups and was looking for something a little different. If you have an open jar or packet of thai curry paste in your fridge, and you like the flavour of it, this is another way to enjoy it. Most of the items are pantry staples, which is how this came to be, and it's fairly low calorie/low fat. I made it to fit a small crock pot (2.5 Q I think)....yields enough for 2 good sized portions. If you use a larger crock pot you would probably have to double the recipe. Some flat bread on the side makes it a meal.
