"I just wanted a side veggie to serve with rice and a protein. I tasted it before I added the balsamic vinegar and it was good, however after I added the vinegar it tasted sour! Leave out the vinegar!"

"I've made this several times and each time it's a huge success! I like to splash mine with a raspberry vinegar at the end of cooking."

"I loved this! I added a little honey in the mix, just a drizzle based on what it was being topped with, but absolutely awesome. Thank you. :)"
