Not All Package Food is Bad....

So we all grew up eating packaged food. If you didn't ever have to eat some sort of Hamburger Helper, or didn't grow up thinking Rice came in a box, well, you suck. So does your face!

But for the rest of us, there comes a point where we start to hate them a bit. For a while, I'd rather eat out than to eat from a package of pre-seasoned...stuff.

And then I realized I had bills, debt, and, well, a lazy. So I started picking up packages of noodles, rice, and that sort of thing.

This all leads me to this past week. A coworker was bragging about his fried bananas. Little Asian Bananas (To quote my awesome Cambodian Co-worker "They are smaller (hands toward crotch) like Asians!") fried.. Hmm.. Off to the market we go!!!

But if we are there, we might as well get dinner, right?

Whatcha Whatcha Gonna Need

Bananas:

• 8-10 small, firm, bananas. 
• 1 box of this awesome stuff pictures above
• Some water - Ours was probably about 1 cup
• Oil in your deep frying vessel

How are you gonna do this?!

• Peel some nanners
• Slice them longways into about 4 pieces

• Mix your batter according to the directions on the box - I made mine a bit runny
• Dip bananas

• Deep fry until freaking yummy
• Put them on some paper towels (we were out :( ) to get extra grease off

Serve with: Honey, ice cream, vanilla something, coconut something, etc. etc. etc. Our plate is gooey with honey!!

Ha so we had a LOT of batter left. What to do? Add honey, a bit of corn starch, thicken it and cook it like funnel cake!!

So what did we do for dinner?
Chicken, potatoes, and carrots. Simple right?
But we found another packet... This one is all Pepper and Garlic nommy

• Chop your chicken into about 1" cubes. I used a large cleaver, because you can buy them cheap at the freaking Asian Market!!

• Slice your Carrots and Taters kinda thin.

• Deep Fry your meat
• Drain like 99% of your oil

• Fry your taters and carrots
• Add your meat and make it all friendly.

• Add your packet of seasoning and cook until the seasoning is all up in that food.
• EAT IT!!!
