I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Ground Chicken Chop Suey

Chop suey literally means leftovers so whatever vegetables or protein you have in the fridge can go into this dish. That means a different meal everytime! It could have bell peppers, carrots, turnip, snow peas, cabbage, cooked beef, shrimp, peanuts... the possibilities are endless.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp vegetable oil

1 lb ground chicken

salt and pepper to taste

1 large onion, sliced

3 celery stalks, sliced

1 cup frozen Asian-style mixed vegetables with edamame

1 tbsp minced garlic

1 tsp minced ginger

370g (3/4 lb) bean sprouts

1 cup chicken broth

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tbsps cornstarch

pinch of ground star anise (optional)

In a large skillet heat vegetable oil to medium and cook the chicken until no pink remains, add salt and pepper. Add the onion, celery and mixed veg and cook about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, star anise if using and sprouts and cook 1 minute. Then make a well in the center of the skillet, mix the broth, soy sauce and cornstarch together and pour into the center. Stir and mix through on medium heat for 1-2 minutes. Serves 4
