Take Out at Home

Know what's fun? Getting take out and vegging in front of the tv. Know what's fun AND healthy? Making your own take out!

One of my fellow bloggers calls dinners like this "take out fake out" because it tastes as good as the "real thing." Personally, I think it tastes better! Especially because this is a meal we never order for take out, yet eating it at home is perfect because it has all the flavors of our favorite Chinese foods.
