Vietnamese Pho and Banh Mi Sandwich
Vietnamese Pho and Banh Mi Sandwich
Recipes By Jaden Hair of the Steamy Kitchen Cookbook
This week I am cooking recipes from my friend Jaden Hair “The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook, www.steamykitchen.com” . I am very lucky to have a family of E-A-T-E-R-S! I don’t have to worry about my kids not eating or eating that. They have been eating from different cultures all their lives. I am so thankful that I introduced them early to all types of food. No fussy eaters at my house. So, after I finished plating the food, I started taking pictures of course. Well, my down fall was I yelled “time to eat and they came running. I had only snapped one shot , then I needed to change my battery in the camera; when I looked around my youngest son Amari was all in it. Before I knew it he was taking big bites and huge gulps of my prop. Why Amari Why? He was enjoying the food so much I couldn’t help but take pictures of him enjoying the meal.
So we all had dinner, I started cleaning the kitchen, my husband and Amari were in the family room watching football. I was asking my husband something about the game and he never responded. Oh well, I am use to it. But, when I walked in the room, to my surprise the game was WATCHING my boys.
Jaden, there is nowhere in the recipe that states, it is used as a sleep aide. This is a keeper! Good food plus a sleep aide, I can’t go wrong.
Here is the recipe for the Vietnamese Pho, I couldn’t find a link for the recipe on her website for the sandwich but it’s in her cookbook page 92, and it’s awesome and full of Flava!

Girl!! Don’t you know that Vietnamese food is my all-time FAVE???!!! Ugh! I would have been at that table faster than your hubby and son, I’m tellin’ ya!
LOVE the photos – the last one is priceless! Keep up the great work!!
Those are adorable pictures!!! You have a great eye, and dinner looks so good I could almost taste it from here. You are inspiring to crack open Jaden’s book soon and have a little fun in the kitchen.
Dinner was awesome, my boys got their tummies full and feel asleep! The cookbook is awesome. I am working my way threw it.
Thanks Lyn, I went in the kitchen a few minutes ago and realized my son loves Vietnamese food also, ALL the broth for the Pho is gone and the noodles. It was a big hit tonight at dinner time!
I love that your son knows how to use chopsticks! I don’t know how old I was when I learned, but I think it was in my 20′s.
I love pho and after traveling in Vietnam last summer find myself craving it. I’ve made it at home before, but I’ve yet to perfect it like it is there.
My son is 10 he has been using chop sticks for about 4 years now.
He uses them a lot better than I do! lol
