Blogchef.net-A beautiful blog of delicious recipes!

Over the next four weeks, I will be reviewing the recipes from the site Blogchef.net. My sister-in-law, Stephanie, introduced me to Blogchef and I was very excited by what I found. Blogchef.net is a beautiful recipe blog. Every recipe includes several large, colorful photos. A brief summary and sometimes some helpful tips or ideas are listed before each recipe. Next, the ingredients needed are listed, followed by step-by-step cooking instructions. I am truly impressed by their blog!

The first recipe I will be reviewing is:

The Clever Chef gives Blogchef's Sesame Noodles Recipe a:

Would I make it again?? You bet!!

Our family loves this recipe!! My kids will eat it without question. We have added grilled chicken breasts from time to time to increase the nutritional value. Make sure you don't overcook the noodles. They are best al dente. This is a very simple recipe that only takes as long to cook as it takes to cook your noodles. Everything else can easily be prepared while the pasta is cooking. It is sure to become a favorite in your collection of recipes!

  2. I love your new blog! It is awesome. I tried this recipe, and I agree, it is great! My favorite part is how easy and fast it is to make. It is also delicious, and my kids love it. The green onions add great texture and compliment the flavor of the sauce well. My kids won't eat them, but I just add them to my bowl after serving it up.
