The kids and I were discussing what we wanted for dinner last night. Each of us had our own ideas. When I suggested Chinese take out their faces lit up. Good take out was out of our reach financially and not in the path of daddies travels. So I suggested we make our own. The kids were game for that as we have made a few dishes in the past and they turned out very good.
I went to one of my favorite sites
Food.com and narrowed our search for the perfect meal. We finally selected
Chinese Take-Out Fried Rice and
Weight Watchers General Tsos Chicken I tweaked both recipes to our liking and what we had on hand (check out the comments by barefootmommawv for my tweaks). Only thing I did cheat on was I had the DH stop by a Chinese restaurant and pick up some egg rolls.

What are some of your favorite take out meals that you like to make for your family? I think I will post some more of the ones I have created as I make them.
