COLD AND FLU CLEAN AIR BREW
We frequently boil this during the cold and flu season. We use it more as a prevention than a cure, but it can help to keep germs down and lessens the possibility of making other family members sick. It also smells great so it isn't a problem to keep it brewing. I put zero cook time because it isn't a set time and is up to the person how long they want it to brew.

CLEAN OUT THE FRIDGE EGG FU YUM!
This is a delicious and nutritious take on my favorite Chinese take-out, Egg Fu Yung. The secret ingredient is ramen noodles! Carrots, green onions, bamboo shoots, and bean sprouts give the pancakes a little crunch and a lot of nutrition. You can use whatever veggies are in the fridge and mix to your taste. The dry mustard gives it a little punch and the seseme oil gives it a hint of Oriental flavor. If you're on a budget, this is a great recipe as you can use meat or chicken or leave it out if you like.

Steps:
- Cook ramen noodles according to package. DO NOT add the seasoning packet. Save for another use.
- In a mixing bowl, beat eggs, mustard, seseme oil, baking powder, and soy sauce.
- Drain bean sprouts and bamboo shoots. Drain well and pat dry. These ingredients must be completely dry. You may use fresh bean sprouts, if you like.
- Shred carrots and dice green onions. Chop bamboo shoots.
- Add vegetables and ramen to egg mixture. Mix well.
- Heat 1 T butter (or oil)for each pancake (egg fu yum).
- I make my pancakes by using a small ladle to drop into the skillet. You don't want the pancake to be more than about 3 inches across, or it will be hard to flip. Make sure your skillet is hot, but not screaming hot. I usually cook only one pancake at a time, so I can watch them better and not tear them up.
- Cook in butter or oil about four-six minutes each side. You want them browned but not burned. Do not attempt to flip them until you lift one side with a spatula to see if it is browned.
- Add 1 T butter each time you start a new pancake.
- Set aside pancakes, keep warm.
- For sauce:.
- Chop round steak into bite size pieces. Brown in skillet with 1 T oil. Drop heat in skillet to low.
- add soy, dry mustard, beef gravy, peas, and seseme oil.
- Heat until frozen peas are hot, about five minutes.
- Place two pancakes on a plate.
- Serve with the sauce on top or on the side in a dipping bowl.
