Chicken and veggies stuffed cabbage roll ups

Ingredients:

1 head of cabbage
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped
1 medium onion
4 garlic cloves, minced
salt and pepper to taste
ground ginger to taste
soy sauce to taste

Start by boiling the whole head of cabbage in some salted boiling water. Boil until leaves are soft then remove from heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper then cook in a pan with some vegetable oil. Once the chicken is cooked throughout, saute the onions, garlice, and carrots. Once the onions have softened, add the ground ginger (about a 1/4 of a teaspoon, or less if you don't care for ginger much). Add chicken, then add the soy sauce. Saute all together. Once the cabbage leaves are cooled, take a leaf off and place the chicken mixture in the mixture and roll as you would a burrito or egg roll. Use toothpicks to keep in place or roll very tight. Bake in oven for about 20-25 on 350. Here are some pictures of how to roll the roll ups and then the finished product sprinkled with soy sauce. Enjoy! :)

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies and Peanut Butter Cookies

Smiley Face Fruit Pancakes

These pancakes were made with blackberries, strawberries and bananas. It's so delicious and easy to make. Just follow the instructions on a regular pancake mix box (like Aunt Jemima, Bisquick) then add your fruit, just a handful of each, a dash of cinnamon, a splash of vanilla extract, and a dash of nutmeg. The ingredients that I used inside my batter are strawberries, raspberries, cinnamon, vanilla extract and nutmeg. Then I just topped the pancakes with strawberries, powdered sugar, and syrup. Yummy!

Chicken Fried Rice

Chicken Fried Rice

Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts, about 2 oz. each
1/2 can of sweet peas (or less, up to you!)
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups of cooked white rice (preferably jasmine or basmati rice)
3 Tbsp of soy sauce or to taste (enough to cover all the rice)
1 egg, scrambled
1 carrot, peeled and finely chopped (optional)
1/4 green pepper, chopped (optional)

Start by cooking the chicken breasts in a pan. Cook about 5 minutes on each side or until brown. It does not have to cook all the way. Remove from pan but leave pan heated with the oil and chicken drippings. Add chopped onions and minced garlic to the pan. While doing that, cut the chicken breasts in bite sized pieces. Saute onions and garlic for about 2 minutes, then add the chicken back to the pan. Cook together for about 3 minutes, then gradually add the rice by dropping a spoonful at a time. Once all the rice is in the pan, combine all ingredients together and add the cup of soy sauce gradually. Next, add the peas, carrots, and green pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, then add the scrambled egg by pouring it into the rice. Mix well until the egg is completely scrambled. Then it is done! Enjoy! :)
