OK, guess what we had for dinner the other night. Not wanting to turn the oven on yet again because of the scorching temperatures, I decided to get some takeout from my neighborhood Pei Wei. It is so easy to order online and tell them what time you will be by to pick it up. Then stop by, pick up and go. The food is fresh when I get home 5 minutes later, you would have thought I cooked it.

Tonight’s menu was Honey Seared Chicken for me. This consisted of a combination of chicken, rice sticks, scallions and red bell peppers in a honey garlic and chili oil sauce.   I had it on top of their fried rice which a nice mixture of soy sauce, scallions, egg, red bell peppers, broccoli and carrots. I could hardly keep from digging into my meal on the way home it smelled so good in the car.

My husband had the Spicy Korean which was a mixture of chicken, garlic, white mushrooms, onions, carrots and long beans in a Korean hot pepper sauce and topped with toasted sesame seeds, his favorite. He also had it on top of the fried rice. Most meals come with either white rice, brown rice or, for an extra charge, fried rice.

Pei Wei is a great alternative to cooking right now. And with warnings for us to conserve electricity in San Antonio so we aren’t forced to go into rolling blackouts, it is nice to know we have someone else to do the cooking for us. With so many locations across the country and 5 here in San Antonio, they make it easy for us to stop in to Pei Wei. Of course if you prefer, you can always eat in their restaurant.  With food choices from five Asian cultures, China, Japan, Korea, Thailand and Vietnam, you are sure to find something to please you.

Don’t feel like cooking again tonight? Just maybe Pei Wei is the answer.
