Sesame Chicken and Noodles



We eat a lot of chicken in my house. So, I'm always on the hunt for new, at least to us, chicken recipes. I stumbled across this one and knew we had to try it. It's perfect for busy weeknights.

Sesame Chicken and Noodles

30 Second Cards

30 seconds is all it took me to make each of these cards. And they didn't cost much to make either. The butterfly stickers are Miss Elizabeth's from the dollar store, the white cardstock is Stampin' Up! and the pink is Chatterbox cardstock. The rub ons are from a big pack of greetings from Making Memories. They go on like buttah. ;)
