Friday Treat: Better Than Takeout

Happy Friday!

You made it!

Don’t you deserve a nice treat?

How about a healthy one too?

I made these a week ago and have been asked every night since to make them again.

We love ‘Chinese’ food in this house. 

Totally adore it.

What I don’t like is paying $70.00 for takout and then all the guilt to go with it so lately I’ve been trying to make a few of our favourite dishes at home for a fraction of the cost and as healthily as I can.

These are really quick and I think that they are right up there on the healthy scale.

‘Chinese’ Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Get everything gathered and ready to go.

In a bowl combine; 3 garlic cloves, 4 T sweet chilli sauce, 1 inch nub of ginger (grated), 1 T sesame oil, 1/8 cup sesame seeds and 1/4 cup soy sauce.

Stirfry together; 1 lb. ground chicken and 1 chopped yellow pepper. Manna bday 3 179

Add all the other ingredients once the chicken is cooked through.

Let the kale wilt and the noodles absorb the sauce. Manna bday 3 184

Place in romaine or butter lettuce cups and enjoy the start of your weekend. Manna bday 3 188
