This is a great recipe! I modified it a bit to suit our taste, omitting the snow peas, mushrooms, and eggplant. I also add one chicken breast. I cut it into thin strips, marinated in teriyaki for 30 minutes, and added in step 5. Since I had leftover coconut milk, I went ahead and doubled the sauce--a good idea since it's so delicious. I would guess that if you're serving over rice, this would be more like 4 servings. Adding the chicken breast maybe even 6.

Yum! I made these veggies for a hawaiian themed party and they were awesome! So good! Very very easy to make too. I didn't really follow any amounts to add, and I actually left out the tofu too, but if I liked tofu it would've been good in there.
