The Family That Eats Together…..

I had planned our weekly menu for the week and tonight we were going to have stuffed potatoes…..kind of a twist on Taco’s….Baked Potatoes – topped with ground beef and lettuce and tomatoes, and cheese, sour cream and salsa……Mmmmm Mmmmm Delicious!

We picked the kids up from school and came home and I was farting around on the Internet and read this post at Balancing Everything. It sounded like so much fun, and I figured that my kids would love to make some potstickers. I found this recipe and figured that I could adapt it slightly and we’d be golden.

We used Kamut Flour instead of regular flour and aside from that – we pretty much followed the recipe.

Jeremy wasn’t too excited about all of this. He pretty much hates anything new. I had high hopes that he’d help with cutting and grating the veggies and that somehow the actual involvement would mean that he would love this meal. Ya….not so much!

Totally Involved and Engaged

He did help out some, and even ate two of the potstickers, BUT that was only after some serious threatening forcing cajoling encouraging.

Siah helped out by throwing his incredible cuteness around…….

Ahhhhhh

Geli made some of the most amazing potstickers. This photo does absolutely NO justice to how amazing looking her potstickers looked. Even if they were not traditionally looking potstickers…..still – AMAZING!

The Real Deal

After all was said and done, the potstickers tasted amazing. It was an easy – if somewhat involved – meal to make and mostly everybody liked them.

I think that we’ll probably make them again and we might even try pyrogies sometime soon…..maybe Jeremy would like those….then again – probably not!
