Oriental Chicken Wrap

Alright, in trying to figure out how to pin this recipe the exact way I made it; I had to blog about it first, because well I found a recipe online, read the reviews and then modified it to work for my lazy self. So here goes:
ORIENTAL CHICKEN ROLL UP
(Copy Cat Recipe from Applebees)
Dressing:
  • 6 Tbsp light corn syrup (or honey)
  • 3 tbsp white wine vinigar
  • 1/2 cup mayonaise
  • 2 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon seasame oil
Other ingredients:
  • 4 flour tortillas (burrito size)
  • Tyson (or like brand) chicken tenders; 2-4 servings worth
  • Bag of asian slaw (also called broccoli slaw, it contains shredded broccoli, cabbage and carrots)
  • Chow Mein Noodles (about 1 cup-2 cups)
  • Sliced almonds (1/4 cup)
Start by mixing the dressing ingredients until smooth; and then chill them.
Cook up some crispy chicken tenders according to directions.*
Cut them up into bite sized pieces when they are finished cooking.
Mix a bag of "asian slaw"; in with the dressing.
(it has broccoli, cabbage and carrots)
Add about 1 cup crispy chow mein noodles and 1/4 cup sliced almonds to the salad and dressing.
Use a soft (can warm a few seconds) burrito sized flour tortilla. Fill with salad mix and chicken. Roll up and eat!
You could also make it the salad the long way. By going to this site. Note that it is only enough for one salad and does not include rolling it up. I doubled the recipe and was able to get 4 good sized roll ups.
*We also decided to throw in about 2 tablespoons of Tastefully Simple Bourbon sauce on the cut up chicken for a different flavor. And because applebees always had a teriyaki type dipping sauce with this particular wrap, though I have yet to find a recipe or name for THAT. Please let me know if you do!
{2 Stars: An absolute favorite of my husband and myself....but the salad means my kids won't touch it with a 10 foot pole}

MN Wild Rice Burgers

After a recent trip to Duluth, where I had the BEST wild rice burger at Fitgers Brewhouse, I came home and decided to try my hand at it.    I googled and found this recipe that even MENTIONED Fitgers version, so I knew I had to start there!   I started off by cooking up a batch of wild rice.   I'd say it made about 3 cups cooked. While the wild rice was cooking, I sautéed up some minced garlic, diced celery and diced onions in a tablespoon of olive oil.  Until they were translucent.  As an after though I threw these in a food chopper because I knew chunks of these items in a burger would turn my kids off! Once that was done, I mixed my wild rice and sautéed veggie mix together.   Next I threw in 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs.  The recipe above called for Asiago cheese, I however could not find any and instead used shredded parmesan.   I seasoned the mix with sea salt, crushed black pepper, oregano, thyme, paprika and caye...

Taco Soup

 My blood, sweat and tears went into this one.  Its a toughy.  Okay; skip the sweat, the blood and tears just came from the butter knife I used to chop up the chicken.  WHO manages to slice open a finger with a BUTTER KNIFE?!  Oh, yeah, MOI! Other than that event; this may have been the easiest thing I've cooked in months.     The hardest part of this recipe was the fact that Fareway foods did not carry green enchilada sauce, and I had to decide what to do instead.   Here is the cast of characters: 1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed 1 (15 oz.) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed 1 (14.5 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes, drained 1 (15.25 oz.) can sweet corn, drained --Oh ha, you don't see this in my picture!??  Silly me; its certainly NOT because I hate corn.  Nope....must have just been missing.    1 (12.5 oz.) can white chicken breast, drained 1 (10.75 oz.) can cream of chicken soup 1 (10 oz.) c...
