  1. Great recipe. This will go into our stir-fry dinner rotation. I made as written and might add some red pepper flakes next time for extra heat. Served with rice.
     
  2. Great taste. Sweet with a very slight hint of spicyness. For my taste, I would of like more spiceyness in the dish. Next time I will add a dryed pepper when sauteing the onions. Overall, great dish. Thank you for posting.
     
  3. Phenomenal flavor! I was pleasantly surprised with the bold taste of this meal! Thank you for posting this. It's my new favorite!
     
  4. This was the best stir fry recipe I have tried in a long time. It was quick, simple and used items you have on hand. I used a fresh bagged mix of veggies.
     
  5. Not bad, but I probably should have added the sesame seeds or peanuts to liven it up a little. Very quick too. I served it over white rice, but fried rice might have been better too.

<p>I am a full-time working mother as well as a part-time college student. I love to cook, but obviously, I don't have a great deal of time to spend in the kitchen. I am always on the look-out for meals that I can prepare for my family of four that are kid-friendly, husband-friendly (hates cheese!) and take 30 minutes or less. 'Zaar has been a lifesaver!</p>
