Chicken - Gourmet Magazine - Oyster Sauce.
Tonight I made Asian Noodles with Chicken and Scallions. The recipe came from Gourmet Magazine (Dec 2006). A very quick dish, I have to say I should have saved this for a weeknight meal. I was able to make this with one pot on the stove and one bowl on the side. I was looking

Ale - Beer - Wauwatosa WI.

Bulgur - Feta Cheese.
Bring in the year with something good and wholesome. I try to do some pantry editing this time of year. There’s always so much that got pushed back during the year that is out of date or completely bad for you. I tend to have a garbage party right around the end of the year.
