I am a super happy girl. SUPER happy. Why, you ask? Fine. I will tell you. I have learned about the magic that is Smart & Final. Do you have a Smart & Final near you? Have you ever been in? I went to the location that is, literally, a little more than a mile from my apartment for the first time Friday evening. Now, of course, I am scratching my head wondering why in the world I had never gone in before. I always get the ads and I always tell myself I will go in and shop and I never do! No particular reason why but now that I have gone in, I will be going in more often! Seriously!!!
I literally found a gold mine. They have EVERYTHING from meat to produce. The best part is that they carry warehouse sized items without a membership and this saves you money and makes shopping less daunting for you. As you know, I have a child with physical and cognitive disabilities. I want to get in and out of the store. That's it. I also don't want to go all the time so I tend to buy in bulk. It makes my life easier and Smart & Final has everything I need! I even picked up a few of the Libman Wonder Mop replacement heads that I haven't been able to find near me (weird!). I also love the small parking lot of my location. Literally- in and out! It was GREAT! No. Not great but GLORIOUS!!! #ChooseSmart!

My daughter and I love food. We love Asian, Caribbean, Italian, European, African, etc. etc. etc. foods. I decided that we would make something that fuses our love of the various cuisines and made a Hawaiian-Style Teriyaki Chicken Noodle Bowl. It came out so good! It's definitely family friendly and very yummy!
I made the recipe using La Romanella products that I picked up!
Oh and speaking of Hawaii, Smart & Final is giving away a trip for two Hawaii! From February 5 - 18, 2014, customers who purchase any La Romanella product will be eligible to win a trip for 2 to Hawaii or 1 of 10 $50 SmartCash cards. You can read more about the giveaway by visiting Smart & Final's website. If you win, will you bring me as your "plus one"? Pretty please?
Here is the recipe:
Printable Recipe
For the Chicken:
1. Marinade chicken in teriyaki for a few hours or overnight.
2. Grill* chicken until thoroughly cooked.
*Note: You can use any cut of chicken you prefer. You can even bake your chicken or cook in your slow cooker!
Noodles:
1. Cook as directed on the package.
For the vegetable Sauce:
Blend together the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, reserved pineapple juice, ginger*, garlic and corn starch. And set aside.
*Notes: You can use frozen (I did!) or ground ginger.
For the Vegetables:
1. Heat olive oil in the wok. Once heated, add your bell peppers, carrots and cabbage and stir fry until thoroughly cooked and add in the pineapple chunks and the vegetable sauce until sauce boils.
2. Once the sauce begins to bubble, turn the heat off and remove your wok (or large skillet) from the heat.
Now the magic!
Grab your bowl, put in your desired amount of noodles, top veggies, chicken and your garnish of choosing and enjoy!
I do want to make an addendum: You can make your own teriyaki sauce or use bottled!
If you make it, let me know! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

ReplyDeleteYUM! I love Asian food, not sure about pineapple juice with teriyaki/soy sauce but I'll give most things a go and this fusion recipe looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are now a Smart & Final fan. I never think to use regular spaghetti when making Asian food. Makes so much sense.
ReplyDeleteThis looks easy, and full of flavor, which can be a hard combination to find. Thanks for sharing! We've been in a rut and I need new ideas!
ReplyDeleteYUM! As an Asian, I can appreciate a good fusion dish! This look delish :) SITS Girl FB love <3
ReplyDeleteThis sounds and looks like a really yum recipe! Thanks for sharing it over at the SITS FB group today. :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, so this looks amazeballs. All of the recipes look pretty awesome really. I think I will go cruise around a bit. The Pasta Puttanesca with Seared Ahi looks like something that needs to happen.
ReplyDeleteI wish we had Smart and Final here in NJ! This recipe I will definitely be making. I love all things Asian and especially when noodles are involved! Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty blog! This looks so good! I think we might have to give it a try! Here from SITS:)
