I Love! Pei Wei

We are not a take out dinner family. I cook dinner 7 nights a week almost every week. I enjoy cooking, it's easier to eat healthy that way, it's cheaper, and my family prefers home cooked meals most of the time. We are definitely not a fast food dinner take out family. BUT there are those nights - you know the ones...

Tonight I got ready to make turkey enchiladas, but when I opened the fridge I discovered that my children had eaten the entire block of cheese! It was 5:30, everyone was hungry and getting crabby. So, I ordered Pei Wei. I love Pei Wei because...

1. I can order online and then pick it up 10 minutes later. That's fast food! Much faster than a quick dash to buy cheese and THEN starting dinner.
2. It's CHEAP! I can feed our whole family for around $20, which is cheaper than a delivery pizza.
3. Everyone loves it - we all split some edamame, the kids split a Kids Honey Chicken Noodle Bowl with Extra Veggies, Davis gets the Mongolian Beef, I get the Chicken Lettuce Wraps.
4. But most of all - it's cheap, fast food that's HEALTHY! My dinner is 310 calories and everyone gets veggies (which are refreshingly NOT overcooked).

With limited quick meals that can be acquired within minutes in our town, it's so nice to have an option that I don't feel guilty about feeding my family!
