Knock Out Panda’s Orange Chicken
You know it. I know it. Orange chicken is absolutely delicious. This is not exactly earth shattering, breaking news. It's tangy and sweet, with a little hit of spiciness. Mmmmm buddy. Try not to lick your screen. I suppose you could go grab some take-out. If you wanted a lame-sauce, is-this-actually-chicken(?) version. Homemade is absolutely… Continue reading Knock Out Panda’s Orange Chicken
Fried Zucchini Batter
This is a super simple, very adaptable recipe to batter veggies for frying. I used zucchini, but it would work with just about anything you want to dip in a light batter and fry to airy crisp perfection. I ate these babies with (gasp!) no dipping sauce. The batter wrapper was perfect for me. They'd… Continue reading Fried Zucchini Batter

Everything… Continue reading Fried Mozzarella Bites

My kids love walking to the mailbox for one reason. It comes in the form of a brightly colored magazine called Clubhouse Jr. Within the pages are stories, life lessons, jokes and activities. They pour over every amazing detail together on the couch and then inevitably have some craft request from within. I am decidedly… Continue reading Get On The Veggie Train With Your Lollipop

Chicken Noodle Soup
Here's the chicken noodle soup I made with my homemade egg noodles. It is full of celery, carrots, onion and chicken. Perfectly homey and delicious. It was incredible. A little tip that I use all the time. At the beginning of most weeks, I poach a few chicken breasts. It’s really easy. Boil broth in… Continue reading Chicken Noodle Soup
