'CHINESE BUFFET' GREEN BEANS
Every time my family and I go to a Chinese buffet we make a bee line for the green beans! This is a simple and tasty re-creation of that much loved side dish, goes well with any Asian meal. Make sure to slice the garlic, don't use a garlic press. Oyster sauce can be found in the Asian section of your grocery store, at an Asian grocery store, and online.

'CHINESE BUFFET' GREEN BEANS
From allrecipes.com, but I need to post it here for safekeeping, because this recipe is amazing! I had to cook my beans longer than I thought to get them soft enough for my taste. So you might give yourself a little more time, depending on how you prefer your beans!

CRAB CASSEROLE (CHINESE BUFFET)
Every time I go to my fave Chinese restaraunt I HAVE to eat this crab casserole. I love the flavors, the texture, heck ... I just love everything about it except for the fact that it makes me wish I had a second stomach just so I could eat more!) At first I didn't think there was any breadcrumbs in it. My MIL said there is. So, I went and bought a bit of it and pulled it apart bit by bit and found there was indeed some breadcrumbs in it. Anyways, I believe this is how they make it. Please let me know what you think.

- Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings in a recipe to suit your own taste. Start with a small amount and add more as needed.

- Use a Wok: A wok is a great tool for cooking Chinese food. It allows you to cook food quickly and evenly.
- Serve Immediately: Chinese food is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help preserve the flavors and textures of the dish.
