Nutrition & Calorie Comments  

The calories and carbs for the rice content are way wrong. That amount of carbs might cover the raw veggies. Important if one is diabetic. Thirteen carbs per serving would be great, too bad it is just not true.

I checked the ingredient page and they only had 28 calories for the rice. One cup of cooked brown rice has 216 calories and since this recipe serves 4 I know that one cup of cooked is the serving size. So we can safely add 188 calories to the recipe bringing the total to 359. Submitted by:

Really good. I didn't have some of the ingredients on hand, so I made it with low sodium soy sauce, and then added chili flakes, ginger powder, and garlic powder to my veggies to subsitute for the fresh. Made it with chicken and again with shrimp. Awesome. Authentic. Submitted by:

Thanks to those of you who noticed that the calorie calculations for the rice were wrong.
Also, don't know if this was mentioned earlier, but the calories for the eggs is based on Egg Beaters. If you're using 3 whole eggs (which the recipe offers as a substitution), make sure you're adjusting, too 		Submitted by:

I make something like this myself. It's very low in calories and I usually eat a lot of it. I measure everything with scales. By the way... I don't add any oil to my pan at all. It would probably stick at higher temps but I keep it around low. Submitted by:

sounds great! can't wait to try it! The only reasons i can think to leave soy sauce out is unless it is pure soy, it does have wheat in it as well as the amount of sodium. Submitted by:

Will be making this tonight, but I did find a mistake in the calorie calculations. The recipe calls for 2 cups of rice, but the calculations only have .5 cups. I thought this might be .5 cups, dry, but I know that 2 cups of cooked rice is more than 100 calories. Submitted by:

Like other comments, I also thought it was lacking a little in flavor. Next time I will cook the rice in low sodium FF chicken broth instead of water. And I will also put some of megs garlic ginger sauce in it too!! A good starter recipe to adjust to your personal taste as you like. Submitted by:

Was really excited about this recipe, but as another commenter noted, the nutritional information is incorrect as the amount of rice entered (o.13 cups) is far lower than what the listed serving size would consist of.

The ingredients list 2 C of rice (approx 1/2 C per serving). However, the nutritional breakdown shows only 1/2 C of rice was entered for the whole recipe (approx .125 C per serving). This SIGNIFICANTLY changes the nutritional info. Submitted by:

Sub. grn onion for reg onion as KisseeKat2 did, added bean sprouts. Stir fried broccoli & carrots before other vegies since they take longer to c Submitted by:

I really like this recipe. It really gives you a large volume of food per portion which is wonderful! I did think it needed additional seasoning (salt), so I sprinkled a little soy sauce on my serving. Submitted by:
