top chef

Last night on Top Chef, the challenge was to create a healthy dinner for a family of four on a budget of $10. Some of the dishes they made looked amazing and I am looking forward to trying them out. I was sad to see Mark go. I wanted Lisa to get the boot :(

Does anyone have a good "food" icon or know where I can find one?

Orange Chicken Stir Fry

We make this recipe a LOT, except I don't put in bean sprouts. I substitute lots of broccoli, zucchini, carrots, and mushrooms instead. Then we serve it over brown rice. I put all the veggies into a pan, add a little water, put on a lid and steam them on high for 3-5 minutes and then turn the heat down to low and let them steam another 5 minutes or so.

Healthy and tasty. :) And fairly cheap if you get the chicken at Costco.

It sounds so yummy. We have a recipe for grilled orange chicken kabobs that my kids love. I'm sure they'd like this stir fry too. Thanks for the link

I'd suggest searching Google images. If you don't want the hassle of making your own icon, I could try to "cook" something up for you. :)

If you have time, I'd love it if you made any icon for me. I can resize a picture to 100x100, but that's all. I don't have a program to add text.

Do you have anything specific in mind?

This is all I've got so far. I'm not feeling very creative tonight. I've got more in the works, but those will probably have to wait until tomorrow.

They are both awesome. I didn't have anything particular in mind. Thanks so much for taking the time :)
