Woah, it's been a long time!
Too long, but with moving, packing, moving, unpacking...
if you have moved before, you understand.
Moving never lends itself to cooking,
so easy to get sick of takeout...and spending all that money on it!
Now that our new place is mostly functional and the kitchen is set up,
the time came to be adventurous and try new recipes.
Both the crockpot orange chicken and skinny cabbage salad are SUPER easy to make!
But the flavors were both lacking.
I will admit that I slightly modified the chicken recipe,
so maybe that is the reason for the end result to be undesirable.
Seriously, I didn't finish consuming it, and we ended up getting horrible-tasting take out.
Instead of ginger and separate sesame seeds, I used Soyaki.
Why? Because it has both in it, and I know I would use the leftover Soyaki.
So instead of the entire allotment for soy sauce,
it was half soy sauce, half Soyaki.
The cabbage salad had NO flavor. It was shocking...and I love cabbage and dill!
We added apple cider vinegar and some balsamic vinaigrette to improve it,
but it reminded me of this recipe that I like far more.
So both of these recipes are getting deleted from my Pinterest board forevermore.
Are you willing to try them?
