This was a good recipe. Similar to a Thai Drunken Noodle type recipe. Obviously you could vary the types of vegetables you use and I will probably throw in some broccoli next time. The only other change I would make is a bit less paprika and a bit more basil but that's just a personal taste. This was very good and I'm glad I had enough left over for lunch tomorrow. Thank you.
