When my family and I began our healthy eating journey, we easily gave up having
"junk food" around the house", eating fast food, and had no problems choosing
organic vs. traditional. We made a pretty smooth transition but after time found
that we missed some of our favorite dishes like General Tso's from our
neighborhood Chinese restaurant.
This was one dish that I was VERY
afraid to try making at home. I have mastered pizza, tortillas, desserts...BUT I
was afraid that I wouldn't be able to match the General's Tofu we were used to.
I still had to try because the cheat nights at the Chinese restaurant were
filled with processed ingredients and sugar. If I could make it myself....we
could have it more often without having a cheat day :)
I saw many recipes
online and to be honest...some were pretty intimidating. May recipes called for
a number of ingredients and most were items that I simply don't keep around the
house. The recipe that I ended up with may NOT be a traditional General Tso's
BUT it was one that I can make with ingredients that I keep around the house and
it was extremely kid friendly!
