I used the splenda brown sugar instead of regular brown sugar. I really did enjoy this recipe. it gave my Thanksgiving meal that bit of sweet without too many calories. I will make it again in the future for a good side dish when I'm craving something sweet. - 12/3/08

WAY too sweet, although the flavors were great! I'll make it again, but reduce the brown sugar to 1-2 tablespoons, and add a little ground ginger. - 12/31/09
