Homemade McChicken

M cChicken sandwich, spicy or regular, has always been a household favorite until McDonalds started adding crap to the recipe. I used to work at McDonalds when I was 16 years old, things have def changed from then to now. Season it how you wish, I just throw a bunch of spices in and call it good! Does not matter what you use.  You Will Need: Ground Chicken Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika  Breadcrumbs  Flour Egg Wash Mayo Buns Lettuce Tomato After you form patties, freeze for 1 to 2 hours. Once frozen, dip in flour, egg then bread crumbs and deep fry until golden brown and 165 degrees temp reached inside. 

Spring Rolls

This is the first time I have ever made spring rolls and let me tell you, I have extra everything and plan to make more for the freezer! They are amazing!! Holy COW!!! Everyone goes nuts over these suckers! Yes, it took me a minute to figure out how to roll these, but once I got it, I was rolling away!!! I was always so scared to try making my own but boy oh boy I am so glad I gave it a test! These ROCK!! I made served them with my fried rice!

You Will Need:

2 tbsp Organic Olive Oil
2 Cups Organic Cabbage, chopped
2 Cups Organic Shredded Carrots
2 Cups Organic Bean Sprouts
1/4 Organic Onion, chopped
1/2 tsp Organic Ground Ginger
2 tbsp Organic Corn Starch
2 tbsp Organic Soy Sauce
1/4 Cup Water
Organic Peanut Oil, for frying
Egg Roll Wraps
Salt & Pepper



Chop cabbage


Add all the veggies; carrots, bean sprouts, cabbage, and onion to a skillet (heat skillet with olive oil first) add ginger, salt and pepper 


Cook on medium high for 5-7 minutes (do not want soft, leave a bit of a crunch to them)


Add water and cornstarch to a bowl or measuring cup


Add the soy sauce to the measuring up and mix well


Should look like this


Add to pan and cook 3 more minutes


Place 2 tbsp on the corner of your wrap; fold covering the filling, then fold again (take in sides and roll stopping just before closing; brush water on end and roll up)


Putting my girl to work! While folding your rolls, start heating your peanut oil over medium high heat


Fry for 4 minutes per side


So good!
