    This was actually pretty good. I added minced garlic and fresh cracked black pepper...could be made with chicken instead of beef if preferred - 10/25/07

    Fair recipe. I'll make it again using a lot more seasoning. It tasted a little bland to me. The kids liked the meat, hated the onions and water chesnuts. I added broccoli instead of green pepper and it worked well. (guaranteed that my kids will eat brocolli) - 3/19/07
