    • Ramen Noodle Bowl

      Posted at 12:13 pm by NativeNM, on January 12, 2024

      When you need a warm brothy bowl filled with noodles and endless vegetables, look no further than a Ramen Noodle Bowl. This has become one of my favorite things to have for lunch during this winter cold spell. It’s also a way to add some veggies to my diet which can be a challenge living with a man who doesn’t care much for vegetables. Actually Joe will eat ramen if I add some cooked chicken and an extra dollop of spicy chili crisp to his bowl. Anything to get a few veggies in him is a win in my book. I like my ramen with spinach, carrots, green onions, cilantro, mushrooms, garlic and ginger. But there are so many other veggies that you could choose from such as zucchini, snow peas, Bok choy, sliced jalapeno, asparagus or anything else that sounds good to you. It will warm you up on a cold day and taste really good too.

    • Kung Pao Chicken (Panda Express Copycat)

      Posted at 11:17 am by NativeNM, on March 22, 2022

      Have you ever had the Kung Pao Chicken at Panda Express? I’ve been searching for the perfect copycat recipe for years and finally found “the one”. It comes from Jamie at Drive Me Hungry. Seriously this recipe is as close as you’re going to get to the Kung Pao Chicken at Panda Express. I would even go so far as to say it’s better. I couldn’t wait to hunt down all the ingredients and get started. Joe has never ordered Kung Pao when we go to Panda because it has zucchini in it. But he ate every bite and said that the sauce even made zucchini taste good. I think I may add some different vegetables next time to get added veggies into our diet. There are a lot of ingredients in the sauce with some that were new to me such as Chinese black vinegar and Lao Gan Ma Spicy Chili Crisp. Every time I try a new Asian dish I learn something new. This version of Kung Pao is a very aromatic dish as well as pleasing to the eye. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
