DOVE FAMILY

I am loving Pinterest- not only am I gettting craft ideas for us to do at home but I am getting recipes from different people! People who may have gotten it from a cool site, famours chef or regular cooks just like me who like to try new things. My family (except Julia of course) loves Sesame Chicken, however, we are very picky when it comes to Chinese food. Extremely picky. So in the last few years, I have learned how to make good and healthful General Tso chicken and sweet and Sour chicken. I recently found this recipe for Sesame Chicken and it was excellent. We had it last night with brown rice and let me just say--- there was nothing left when we were done! I did put aside a few chicken peices for Julia and didn't mix them with sauce since we all know how picky she is. Its easy to make for 1 person, 4 people or even 8! Check it out!
