Japanese Dinner Party

WE FINALLY DID IT! We finally had our Japanese Dinner! This dinner has been a long time coming, and I was starting to believe that it wasn't going to happen. But we persevered and made it happen and it was soooo worth it! All of the food was so delicious! I have so missed having The Wrights and The Higgins over for our international food nights! 

Food on the menu:

* Miso Soup

* Dumplings in traditional rice vinegar dipping sauce!

* Fried rice and marinated chicken wings

* Japanese Teriyaki Chicken Salad (Recipe below)

Oh YUM!

JAPANESE YUMMIES!

Next international food night... ITALIAN! Possibly one of my fav's!

Japanese Teriyaki Chicken Salad Recipe:

*Cooked short grain rice

*Salads: Red cabbage, green cabbage, lettuce, red onion, mushrooms, apples, mung beans, carrot, cucumber. (You can pretty much put anything on there that you like in a salad.)

* Marinated Teriyaki chicken strips

* Sesame Seed Dressing (you can buy this in most supermarkets)

* Ginger Dressing (click on this link for the recipe)

(You basically layer it up in this order in a big bowl and then dig in! You can have lots of different sauces too, like Sweet Chili or BBQ Sauce too.)
