This chicken chop suey recipe tastes very similar to the one at my favorite Chinese restaurant. There is a lot of chopping, but it's well worth the effort! We like it with noodles or vegetable fried rice.

Barbecued Pork Skewers
These BBQ pork skewers are perfect for summer entertaining. When you're in the mood for barbecued pork, you have two options: pork ribs or a slowly smoked pork shoulder made into pulled pork. But what if you want something different? In that case, these BBQ pork skewers come highly recommended. And no, we're not just sticking chunks of pork on a stick! This is way more advanced and way more delicious. Garnish with thinly sliced green onion and drizzle with extra barbecue sauce if you like.

Very good. Good texture. Always a hit.
Sweet Potato Cranberry Sauce Bread
Uses up these two holiday leftovers. It has a festive flavor and is so moist! I made this up based on another recipe and made it specific to what I had on hand. You can do the same. I love the combo of nutmeg and allspice... it just says holidays!
