Whipped this one up randomly one night and it turned out great. Over did the heat a bit with the pepper flake, but even so it was quite good. I left the extra heat in the recipe, but feel free to halve or more if you don't like too much heat.

I altered the recipe a little. I used sesame oil instead of vegetable oil. And added sweet chili sauce with the soy sauce. I also added shaved carrots with the cabbage. I cut the asparagus into two inch segments, so it was easier to stir in my pan. I wish I had a wok!! Made homemade fried rice to go with it and the family loves it!!!!! Thanks for the recipe!!

Great recipe! What a keeper! I didn't have red bell peppers or asparagus, but it was great without them. Reduced crushed red pepper to 1/4 tsp for toddler and used 1/2 TBs of jarred minced ginger. Super great and easy thanks!

Very good! Fixed this last night because I had all the ingredients. Added a few onions and cayenne powder instead of crushed red pepper. This is a keeper. Will fix this again.
