This was really lacking in flavor. I added a ton more soy sauce and it still didn't help. I wasn't able to add the onions and the soy sauce was low sodium...could that have been why?

We're not big fans of celery so I subbed in some frozen peas; it was a big hit!

This dish is excellent! I added bell pepper and onion while I cooked the carrots. It added to the flavor and I managed to sneak more veggies in on my kids. My husband even told me it was way better than the stuff we got in a restaraunt recently!

Very easy. I used frozen peas instead of celery and added some tamari sauce.

A delicious taste for very little effort, and healthier than take-out. A great use for leftovers, too. I added a little onion and sweet red pepper to the vegetables, and used egg substitute instead of eggs. Will be preparing this again.

So quick. Didn't know exactly what time we would be eating, so I did the prep earlier in the day -- didn't take long -- and whipped it up in no time when we were ready to eat. I used leftover pork instead of chicken. Served it with the Broccoli in Hoisin Sauce featured in the magazine, along with apple slices and cottage cheese. I halved both recipes. Didn't realize it had already been done here! Even halved, we had some leftover. I may freeze it to see how it does.
