No need for Chinese take-out with this recipe in your file! It's a little time consuming but worth the effort. All of my kids LOVE it! I just serve it with rice and egg rolls or pot stickers (my faves are from Schwan's).

I followed the link from your comment on my blog over here...hope you don't mind. Your blog is adorable (and so are you!). I agree, I would watch the Food Network all day, too, but it never happens! I'm thrilled you like this sweet and sour chicken! I can't wait to look around at your other recipes.
