Attempt #1: curry

I love the Golden Curry mix: add it to chicken and veggies and, poof!, instant delicious curry.
In an attempt to both move away from pre-processed foods and an attempt to become a better cook, I tried this recipe for curried chicken crepes today.

MMM.

Turned out great. Took a picture, but, silly me, I lost both the cord to my camera AND the memory card adapter, so I can't upload pictures. Ever. Until I find the adapter.

Anyway, it's the sort of food that I probably won't be able to eat again until I'm no longer pregnant (pickiness comes with the big belly) because of the texture (coconut milk is slightly grainy), but it's DEFINITELY a make-again. In fact, the recipe made enough that I froze two servings for fast and easy meals when the baby comes.

Today, I was lazy and didn't want to make crepes, so I put it on rice instead. And I didn't have coconut milk powder, so I just used 1 3/4 c canned coconut milk and put it in with the sour cream. Worked out great. Much saucier, but that's perfect for rice.

And Zade loved it! (Jacob's at work late so hasn't tried it yet.) I think Zade ate more of it than I did. I thought the curry or coconut would throw him off, but he gobbled it up as fast as I gave it to him.
