Ever made something so good, people continued to talk about two and a half years later? That was me with these Teriyaki Chicken Wontons. I actually made them as eggrolls initially, and served them at a party. People still tell me it's their favorite thing I have ever made, so you know it's pretty memorable! I made the same filling into wontons, for more of a finger-food vibe, but it's your choice - wonton or eggroll - the important thing is how incredibly delicious they are! Thank you to Western Kosher for sponsoring this recipe! If you … [Read more...]

P.S – it’s completely free! If you've been a guest in my home, you already know that I love to put together a great salad.

You need chewy, soft, crispy....you get the idea! While I generally like a tossed salad, an arranged platter like this is great for a crowd.
