The first is for the crock pot beef and broccoli, the second is for the fried rice.

I really have nothing to add to this. But here it goes anyways…

*I put in probably a little over a tablespoon of minced ginger and also added some Sriracha to both the beef and fried rice.

**After I added the cornstarch and let it boil the sauce didn’t really thicken, but it tasted just fine.

***I cooked mine on low for 6 1/2 hrs total. It does not need to be that long, but it was kind of nice having the beef shredded as opposed to chunks you have to cut.

Baked Sweet n Sour Chicken with Fried Rice

I have made this recipe many times, but every time I make it I am so excited to eat it I forget to take a photograph.

Since I moved to Springfield, finding St. Louis style Chinese food had been very difficult. Luckily, Pinterest came into my life and I have discovered many tasty Chinese dishes. This beats any other sweet n sour recipe.  Plus it is baked and not fried giving you a not-so-guilty feeling for eating way too much of it :)

*It's a little on the sweet side, so you can definitely cut back on the sugar a little bit.

**I also did not use all of the oil it called for because I felt it was a little excessive and would then have to be considered a fried dish.

Asian Inspired Flank Steaks with Fried Rice and Parmesan Roasted Green Beans

I clearly decided to just go ahead and repost everything. I hope you all enjoy!

I made this meal for Joey's birthday, that was in June. It was the first Pinterest meal I had ever made and it turned out quite nicely I thought.

*With the fried rice I also added a Tablespoon of minced ginger.

**For the green beans I used Tony Chachere's cajun seasoning instead of salt and pepper, it is my go to when salt is needed.

***Another time I made the green beans I used Feta cheese instead of parmesan, it tasted even better!
