"An easy, quick and tasty meal for 1. At only 3.5 points this is a great dinner. I like to use a vegetable mix that has water chestnuts for the crunch. I usually serve this over steamed basmati rice. Taken from the WW Single Serves book. Australian measurements used."

This is a good base recipe but needs lots more flavor in my opinion. Try it, but add more soy sauce, some salt maybe, more galric, maybe more honey...just kick up the spices! In addition, too much liquid. The frozen vegetables thaw a lot of liquid into the dish, so either drain that or add it into the recipe liquid. Otherwise this was good, just needs a few tweaks for me. I appreciate that it is healthy and doesn't use unecessary oils.
