The Chinese Dinner Store
We've been trying really hard not to eat out often. Instead Ben lets the girls choose the menu and they cook together. The girls call restaurants the dinner store. Addy and Sydnee take turns playing the waitress/hostess, they make menus and take the orders. Last Friday it was Addy's turn to choose. She chose a Chinese themed menu. We had sweet and sour chicken, lemon chicken and egg drop soup. Since there is a recipe in my cookbook for the soup I was allowed in the kitchen to help. The recipe for the soup is super easy and it turned out great. The recipe calls for frozen corn and all I had was canned, but it still worked. It looked and tasted just like the real thing you get at the dinner store. Here is the recipe. Our sweet and sour sauce recipe is a top secret recipe from one of the best restaurants. It is so yummy. I will post it when I can find it.
