    I make this a lot, but I don't use pineapple juice. I find the veggies "sweat" enough so that I have just the right amount of liquid. - 4/6/09

    The vegetables were too weird being sweet like that with the sauce so I won't be making it again. :( - 4/17/09

    Made it just with onions-green ppepers and pineapple chunks. Added liquid from pineapple can & brown sugar/soy/starch/lime juice.
    Served on top brown rice and sprinkled crisp bacon. Yum!     - 4/6/09

    Wonderful! I happened to have everything I needed on hand. Served it over a little brown rice and added a little cooked chicken so it was a complete meal. Could also add some tofu instead. Thanks. - 4/6/09

    Make this often, though usually with vinegar instead of lemon juice. When slivered or diced pork is added it's called sweet and sour pork stir fry. - 10/8/08

    Used squash instead of zucchini and worked well. Think next time I'll add in some water chestnuts. Also think the sauce could be used as a marinade for pork or chicken... - 6/16/09

    I added 6 oz. shrimp to increase the protein, and served with brown rice as suggested. Delicious -- and even better leftover after veggies have absorbed the flavors of the sauce! - 4/5/08

    Delicious! I made the sauce the same, but used frozen vegetables instead of fresh vegetables because I didn't want to take the time to chop. Still good though! - 11/20/07

    Very good! I drained the juice off of canned pineapple and also threw the chunks of pineapple in with the veggies. I also added water chestnuts. Next time I think I will spice up the sauce just a bit. Thank you for sharing! - 5/17/07

    This is great, and my kids liked it, too. I subbed extra broccoli for the zucchini, and my family doesn't like cooked broccoli. Very good! This will become a regular vegetable side at my house. - 3/22/07

    We didn't have pineapple so we substituted with orange. It was really sweet and overtook the taste of the vegetables. I think we'll make this again but halving the sauce. - 12/11/10

    I added chicken, more vegetables, and more pineapple juice (I could only find a 6 oz can and didn't want to waste it). I used honey instead of sugar, and had to add a bit more cornstarch. It was very good. I'll definitely make it again. - 10/6/10
