| Toppings for banh mi |

| Our version of banh mi with chicken meatballs | 
 As we continue to go around the world, so to speak, we landed in Vietnam
 last night.  We made banh mi sandwiches and salad.  They both were 
flavorful and different.  For the banh mi, we used the leftover 
potsticker filling and turned them into meatballs; just added 1 egg and 
1/2 cup of panko breadcrumbs to the mix.  I cooked it in the oven for 40
 minutes, flipping half way through, in a baking dish.  To make the 
sandwiches, just take store-bought French bread, and spread with a spicy
 mayo (2 tablespoons mayo, 1 teaspoon siracha, 1 teaspoon 
Worcestershire, and 1/2 lime juice).  Add the meatballs and then top 
with whatever condiments you like (I used cilantro, basil, green onion, 
shredded carrots, and cucumber).  For the salad, it was simply: lettuce,
 radish, cucumber, shredded carrot, and store-bought ginger dressing.  
It was a fun dinner and delicious!
