     This was delicious!! I'll definitely be making it again many times. I added matchstick carrots and sliced onions, but other than that followed the recipe exactly as written. Great idea to add seasoning directly to the broccoli first. It's quite spicy, so cut down on red pepper if you prefer milder. - 4/25/14

     YUM! I made this with carrots in place of the water chestnuts. This was the first recipe I've made on this plan & am sure I will be making many more! - 7/11/12

     Made this the other night and it was delicious! A little too spicy though, I may reduce the crushed red peppers by half next time, and then just spice it up with Sriracha if it needs more of kick.
    My grocery store didn't have water chestnuts or bamboo shoots, so I just threw in some bean sprouts. - 3/11/11

     Loved this, I added more veggies ( carrots, mushrooms, onions and celery) and omitted the hot pepper flakes. I really like the ginger,it's more than I have used in the past. - 1/28/11

     It was really good and I also used other vegetables such as muchrooms, tomatoesm and onions in place of the bamboo shoots and water chestnuts. My roomates loved it too I could hardley keep enough for my self. And as I a college student Ialso felt that it was convienent too. - 11/23/08

     Made this with a bit of a variation with the veggies- didn't have bamboo and water chestnuts on hand. Used mixed veggies (carrots, califlower, peas, & broccoli). Served over brown rice. Tasted very good! - 8/11/08
