Egg Roll in a Bowl
You might think this was invented to avoid all of that time-consuming wrapping and messy deep-frying, but it wasn't! It was invented by the keto people, because they can't eat egg roll wrappers-but this guy can.

Krista's Sticky Honey Garlic Wings
These wings with honey garlic sauce are sure to be a hit with the whole family. The homemade sauce is so much better than store-bought jarred sauce. You can fry the chicken wings, but I prefer baking for less fat. Serve with fried rice and stir-fried veggies.
