Thanks for sharing us the recipe, I might have a try on weekends.

 

Mm, these looks great. I tried something very similar but not this and it was great. I tried to find something for long time but couldn't find. BR

 

Add a squeeze of lemon juice (1/4 tsp quarter) and taste. Add a bit more lemon juice if you like the mixture to be more lemony.

 

These dishes remind me of the chinese dish Yuk Sung which I love. I never even considered using these fillings instead. I love tuna so I will be making the tuna mix for sure.

 

Great and delicious taste, I tried it this sunday, Though i messed it up initially but then I managed quite well. Regards.

 

OOOOOoooooo THIS I can do! lol The toughest part will be slicing the chicken. I LOVE to bake but dinner is pretty much mundane around here. My tribe will like this one;) Thanks!
