Chinese Take Out Again?
Hang up That Phone and Cook It at Home! By Allison Huller McAlister
Fried Rice
Not only is this one of the easiest fried rice recipes that I've ever attempted, it's also the best tasting. Feel free to add your own personal touches to the recipe, as I imagine it'd be even better with add-ins like shrimp, chicken or pork.

Frank was right eggrolls are much easier to make than I had anticipated. These pork eggrolls are extremely flavorful and fairly easy to prepare. I may just have to quit buying the prepackaged frozen ones at the grocery store!
