Submitted by CaliforniaJan

"Great taste and on the new PointsPlus program just 4 points per serving. I add in some red pepper flakes for kick, but they can be omitted for a still lovely and no-heat dish."

Very good, easy and very adaptable to whatever veggies available.I didn't have any bean sprouts and had less snow peas than called for so added one package of green beans. Good, easy and a very filling meal. Thanks for sharing!
