Tasty Tuesday 1/26/16

Lately I've been wanting some chowmein, I haven't been able to go out and get some so I decided to try my luck and make some. It came out decent and didn't taste that bad, but I still felt like it was missing something, so next time I'll have to play around a little with flavor. For the most part though it was tasty! 

I started with some cabbage mix and cooked it with some oil for a few minutes..

Next, while the cabbage was cooking, I made the sauce with soy sauce, sesame oil, hoisin sauce, some brown sugar (not pictured), and some garlic..

I just eye balled it..

Careful with the sesame oil, a little goes along way..

Then I took my already cooked chicken and my yakisoba noodles and mixed it with the cabbage. 

(I used three packages of yakisoba noodles) 

*(also make sure you loosen up the noodles before you mix it. There's directions on the back..)



When I got that all mixed up I used one of the flavor packets from the yakisoba and mixed that with 1/2 cup of water and the sauce that I made. Cooked it for a few mins a wah-lah! Dinner was done pretty quickly! I used already cooked chicken because on school nights, there never seems to he enough time to get everything done! You can choose any type of meat you prefer! 

I also made some egg rolls! 
I made some more of the sauce from earlier and mixed it with the cabbage and the rest of the chicken and wrapped them up and fried them for a few mins on each side. 


   I've never made egg rolls before and these came out pretty good for my first time! 
 
Added some fortune cookies and had us a dinner in under 30mins! 

Not the best pic but hey that's okay..

2016

The start of a new year...

Hey folks! Okay so it's been close to a year since I've been on, so I probably don't have ANY more followers :(. That's okay I'll just talk to my self. LOL! 

Welcome to 2016! I'm not going to say I have a New Years resolution per say, more like baby resolutions. Haha! There's a lot of stuff I want to accomplish, time doesn't stand still and I'm not getting any younger here. So I'm thinking I will re-do my '101 goals in 1001 days', that seems more realistic to me, so keep a look out for my *new* list of goals!
