Lovely and quick side dish. Seasonings/sauce are just right-don't overwhelm the taste of the veggies. I made it on the stove-and used chicken broth instead of granules. I combinded sauce ingredients in a wok and then added veggies and stir-fried. Needed to add a little more broth this way, but still worked out wonderfully/ Thanks for a great recipe!

Me in my kitchen, and at the Wild game.
I am a photographer, portrait and fine art, and I am a yoga instructor. Besides cooking, I enjoy fitness and yoga, reading, organizing, gardening, puzzles, family, and HOCKEY. GO WILD!!!! I love to cook for my large husband...he is a natural powerbuilder and has a lot of muscle to feed. People ask how he got so "huge" and he has to answer, my cooking of course!
We both work out a lot, so we eat a lot of healthy food...I cook a LOT! The recipes I post and save to my cookbooks are usually healthy and lower calorie, or can be adapted to be so.
