I am inviting families to submit recipes for dishes that they make together along with pictures and a short excerpt documenting the experience of creating something as a family! Additionally, I will be adding some of my favorite recipes! It is my hope that many of you will see a recipe on here that interests you. I encourage you to try to make something new with your family and create something together!

Fried Rice with Broccoli
Here's a great way to use leftover white rice from Chinese food take-out!
Ingredients:
leftover white rice from Chinese food takeout
1 small onion (chopped)
salt
black pepper
1 cup of frozen broccoli
soy sauce
1 egg (beaten)
vegetable oil
(feel free to add any other ingredients you would like, such as peas, chopped carrots, chicken, pork, tofu, etc.)
Directions:
Over medium heat, saute onions in a large nonstick pan in heated oil until the onions become a very light brown. In the meantime, heat broccoli in microwave until soft. Add rice evenly throughout pan, mixing it into the onions. Add soy sauce (to taste) and continue mixing around rice. Add broccoli. Cook as long as desired (longer cooking time will produce crispy effect). Before removing pan from heat, mix in beaten egg along with salt and pepper (to taste). Cook for approximately 1 minute, mixing egg around evenly.
Somehow, there always seems to be leftover rice from Chinese food take-out. This recipe is a fun alternative to eating it plain! I usually add whatever protein or vegetables are available to me in my house so use your imagination and enjoy!
