    The nutritional information does include the rice. I included 2 cups of rice so 1/2 cup per serving

    Brown Sugar Splenda and brown rice make it healthier if one wants to lower sugar and have a healthier dish. Thanks for sharing. - 4/23/09

    Recipe is good but had to leave off the soy sauce due to the sodium content, if I can find a low (for real, low) sodium soy sauce it would be really good. Will make again.... - 4/21/09

    This was delicious, but because of the amount of ingredients it's hard to make sure you have everything on hand. Would make again. - 4/20/09

    This was great! Easy to add in your favorite veggies or take out veggies you don't want. The sauce was wonderful! Thanks Angie for a great recipe! Who knew making Chinese food at home could be so easy and yummy! - 1/18/12

    The only ingredient missing for us was the pineapple and the pineapple juice. I was able to put this together and serve in about a little over 2 hours. The sauce was outstanding. Great recipe! - 2/1/10

    Fantastic! I was skeptical because I love Chinese food and don't usually like how it comes out at home. But I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything! I was also concerned because the sauce smelled strongly of vinegar when I took it out of the microwave but it was great! I wouldn't change it! - 7/14/09

    I put the sauce ingredients with three frozen chicken breasts in the crock pot on high for 5 hours. Then I added veggies and pineapple and cooked while I made brown rice in the rice cooker. Shred the chicken and spoon all over rice! YUM! ALSO, reduced brown sugar to 1/2 cup...still sweet! - 5/3/09
