Crab Rangoon Pizza

Your favorite Chinese takeout appetizer becomes a fun dinner with this Crab Rangoon Pizza. It’s irresistible drizzled with sweet chili sauce.

Before having a kid, I could count on one hand the number of times I’d eaten crab rangoons in my life.

It wasn’t something my parents ordered when we got Chinese takeout, and it wasn’t until I met my husband in college that I was introduced to this very Americanized Chinese appetizer to go alongside my General Tso’s chicken.

But one night after my daughter had started eating solid foods, we ordered crab rangoons on a whim. And she LOVED them. I mean, she could have devoured an entire order herself if we let her.

Now, when she hears takeout food delivered to our porch, she always asks “are there goonies?” She is so disappointed when we’ve ordered burritos or chicken shawarma instead. But we order far more crab rangoons than I’d like to admit.

So today, I thought I would combine my daughter’s favorite food with my husband’s favorite food of pizza (he’s the inventor of our cheeseburger pizza and chicken pizza), to make a very special treat for both of them, with this crab rangoon pizza.

Meal preppers, listen up: all of the ingredients for this Turkey Egg Roll Salad can be chopped and prepped in advance. When you’re ready to eat, dinner can be on the table in less than five minutes!

Sad update on the Chinese food takeout situation in my neighborhood: The owner of our favorite place did indeed pass away, and we all miss her terribly.

China Ruby is now closed for good, and we haven’t been able to find any takeout place that holds a candle to it. Sure, there are places a 20 – 30 minute drive away that are supposed to be great, but who wants to drive that far for takeout?

Asian Zoodle Salad Jars

For several years now, a trip to Williams-Sonoma or any other kitchen store just hasn’t held the same allure. Don’t get me wrong, they’re full of amazing kitchen equipment and products. But the thing is – I’m all set.

I’m not the biggest fan of single-purpose gadgets, so since I already have a beautiful set of pots and pans, some sharp knives, and a few high-quality small appliances (as well as a tiny kitchen with limited storage), I’ve resisted bringing anything new home for awhile now.
