A few weeks back, I ate Chopsuey through food delivery. I thoroughly enjoyed it so I made a mental note to cook one for myself in the next few days. And that day is today, I cooked Chopsuey. Definitely, super fulfilling as I get to do what I wanted to do. And this tasted so good! Especially because I know I’m eating healthy food. This will help me a lot in my health goal 😊
There is a lot of prep work to do. In the end though, it’s super worth it! I used frozen broccolis versus the fresh one coz the fresh one is sooo expensive! There is no difference though, this Chopsuey still tasted as good no matter which type I used.
