Here I go with my entry for Four Foods on Friday meme.

#1. What type of m&m is your favorite?
I like just the regular M&M’s the dark chocolate ones are nice but I can’t find them any more. I’m not too keen on the peanut or almond flavors though.

#2. Peanut butter. Smooth, chunky, creamy. How do you like it?
Smooth. I don’t eat much of it any more either. I used to have toast with peanut butter and jam or marmalade every morning, but I haven’t eaten it in a while. I particularly don’t like peanut butter mixed with chocolate. Reese’s Cups or things are right out. My husband teases me about this failing on my part, but not too much, because it means he gets to eat all of those types of candy if we’re given them at Yule tide or for Easter or something like that.

#3. Do you usually drink out of glass, acrylic, Tupperware type or paper cups?
For the most part lately I’ve been drinking directly out of cans. I will use glasses if I’m drinking water or something. We also have plastic and styrofoam cups at our house too for when our friends are over gaming, and because my husband maintains that hot drinks keep their heat longer in styrofoam rather than mugs so whenever he has coffee or tea he drinks it out of those and I drink it out of a mug.

#4. Share a chicken recipe.
Hm. Well, I’ve shared a few recipes in the past few weeks that use chicken. Let’s think what else I can…oh, General Tso’s chicken. That’s actually fairly simple, LOL, because I cheat with it a lot so I can make it quickly.

1 cup of rice per person eating.
1 lb pack of chicken breasts.
1 bottle of General Tso’s sauce. (I usually get the Iron Chef kind).
Birds Eye Microwaveable Steam Broccoli.

Chop the chicken breasts into bite sized pieces and fry them up.
Set the rice to cook with one cup of water per cup of rice either in a rice steamer or in a pan on the stove.
Once the chicken is browned add the General Tso’s sauce.
Once the chicken is thoroughly coated, steam the vegetables and then add them to the mix.
Serve.

There are ways to make the General Tso’s sauce for scratch, but any time I’ve tried it’s always come out tasting absolutely horrible, so I go for the cheat way. The sauce is usually about $4 but it’s worth it to not have the hassle of a horrible meal.
