I love Chinese food as well but the nights of a quick take out dinner are behind me.I don’t like to make take out a regular occurrence for my family not only for their health but for my pocket as well. Instead of ordering out I made chicken and broccoli and it was simple. Of course not as simple as picking up the phone but my son liked it so much better he ate three helpings after coming home from CCD.
