My Attempt at making Chinese Food…

Ok, so everyone that knows me knows that my family and I LOVE Chinese food and we frequent Chinese places.

Anyway, I attempted to make my family some yummy (Americanized) Chinese food for dinner yesterday. I attempted to make a vegetable stir-fry, chicken, baked crab rangoon, and some crabmeat thing that my husband likes. Well everything turned out ok except the crab rangoon which, by the way, is my 5 year old’s favorite part of a Chinese meal. While he was eating my attempt at crab rangoon, he turned to me and said, “Mom, can you not make Chinese anymore? Let’s just go to the restaurant from now on”.

I think the crab rangoon would have turned out perfect had I fried them in grease like the restaurant does but I wanted to make them healthier so I baked them and made them according to a recipe I found online. I told the 5 year old this and he said, “Well, I like the grease”.

Ok, so now that I have revealed to everyone on how horrible of a cook I really am, please feel free to share something that you do horribly. You are horrible at SOMETHING aren’t you?

As for today, I don’t know what I am making for dinner but it will be something easy and previously tested by the family.
