Stir-Fry Guy

Today is Chinese New Year!
And I love an excuse to celebrate a holiday with food so here's to the year of the horse!
Also, it's Friday and nothing is better than making a meal with someone you love.
I've been looking forward to this all week long.


Tonight's menu is...
Veggie Eggrolls (I cheated these are store-bought, but at least they are from the deli area and not frozen)
Sesame Faux-Beef Stir Fry

Brown rice, prepared
1 lb. frozen veggie crumbles
1 pkg broccoli slaw
1 pkg cole slaw
3 green onions, chopped
sesame oil

Peach on Earth

We had our Office Christmas Party the other day and decided on a three ingredient no-fail recipe! It always delivers and rarely leaves leftovers. Peach-BBQ Lil' Smokies 2-14 oz package of Lil' Smokies cocktail sausages 1-16 oz jar of Peach Preserves 1-16 oz bottle of BBQ sauce Put all ingredients into a crockpot, stir and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.  Serves 12-15, I would double for larger crowds.

Whip it Whip it good

Coconut whipped cream It's so good, it only requires 3 ingredients, it's vegan and has none of that artificial garbage. Yes, the can is upside down and yes it is necessary. It probably wasn't necessary to take a picture of it upside down, but it's funny so there! 1 can of full fat coconut milk, chill in fridge overnight 2 tsp sugar  1/2 tsp vanilla Put your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 5 minutes. Open coconut milk upside down, pour out the liquid and save for another use. Scoop out the cream and add to chilled bowl. Whip with electric mixers or a Kitchenaid mixer with paddle attachment. Add sugar and vanilla. Continue to whip until light and fluffy. Use this like cool whip, I even used it to make a layered oreo dessert it was delish!
