We actually had this last week, I just forgot to comment on it. And it was definitely worth a blog post.
In the interest of trying something "different," we found a recipe for Chicken Moo Shu in yet another older Cooking Light cookbook. I adore Chinese food, but it's seriously on the "No Way can you Have that!" list for now. This is a version of takeout that you can make at home. I love recipes that duplicate something that you could experience at a restaurant at home. (like my lettuce wraps)
Essentially, this was just a stir-fry, with cabbage, carrots and zucchini, chicken, ginger, garlic, hoisin.....It didn't include a recipe for the Chinese pancakes, so we substituted flour tortillas. I have a Chinese cookbook and we looked to see if there was a recipe for the pancakes, and there is! So next time... It also made excellent leftovers that were healthy, delicious and better for you than the ones at our local Chinese restaurant. :)
