First, for lunch I made some coconut honey granola, which was really tasty, but, a little on the sweet side for me. The Hubs loved it, though. I've been really craving asian food, as always, so I decided to make some for dinner tonight. We're a little low on groceries and by the time Hubs gets home from work he's really tired, or I'm still sick. But, I'm pretty crafty, so, I knew I could come up with something tasty with just the basics.
I really like Sweet and Sour chicken, but, I love the spiciness of General Tso's, so, I wanted to combine them. And that I did. First I fried up some chicken bits (naughty, I know). Then I made up the sauce, which was really fun to do. First, I had to break down each flavor in the sauces, then somehow combine them together seamlessly with the scant ingredients I had on hand. I was expecting it to suck, but, oh, my, it was soooooo good. I will definitely be making it again. The rice was just basic egg fried rice. It was ok, I wish I would've had some scallions or carrots, but, whatevs. I fried up some of those crispy wonton strips that normally come with order-out chinese food. They were a little thick, so, I'll have to roll them out a little thinner first. Other than that, they were also quite good.
