Food, food and more food recipes!

So it's been a loooooooong time since I've blogged. Teegan does (so many!) things that I haven't had the time to blog about them all! Between working, house projects, puppies, being PREGNANT and doing all thing things that I do, I've just had 'no time' to blog (aka I've been allowing myself to be lazy/slack) so here we go! I'm back!

So for my first blog back, I'm going to ease into things and just offer up the links to some OTHER people's blogs (and websites) of where I've found some great recipes. So here you go!

These last few recipes I don't have exact 'recipe measurements', I just know the ingredients and do it by taste, so good luck! ;)

Curried Mock Duck-

Sauté sliced white/yellow onion in a little peanut or sesame oil until soft
Add 1 LARGE can or 3 small cans mock duck and warm up
add 1 can coconut milk
Peanut butter to taste
Brown sugar to taste
Ginger to taste
Curry paste (you guessed it, to taste!)
Meanwhile, make some Basmati rice,  6 cups water to 1 cups rice 

Spring Rolls-

Rice vermicelli noodles cooked according to package directions
Spring Roll wraps (softened in warm water for 20 seconds RIGHT before you are ready to roll)
Julienned carrots
Julienned cucumber

Add ingredients to wrap and roll up like a burrito!

Sorry this isn't super in depth directions, pictures, etc... but I'm easing back into this :)
