    I admit I was spectical, but this was really good - even my vegetable-hating 12 year old liked it. Because I had taken out hamburger for dinner, I mixed this with a pound of ground beef (cooked the ground beef first) and used real garlic instead of garlic salt. - 7/14/10

    This was amazing! We're on a low carb diet and after eating this I almost felt guilty it tasted so good. Even my 19 year-old son who HATES cauliflower loved it and told me I need to make this more often. - 7/7/13

    I tried this because I love fried rice and it was adding way too many calories to my diet and I didn't really think this would work. But it is so awesome! I miss biting into the rice but the flavor is amazing and a great substitute! - 11/22/12

    I read all these reviews yesterday and thought, really, can it be that close to rice? I haven't eaten rice in years, and then I tried this for dinner last night. My sincerest apologies for having doubted you all! THIS WAS AMAZING! I can't believe it! Thank you sooooo much! - 5/12/11

    I am usually a VERY picky eater who does not welcome many veggies into my diet but I REALLY enjoyed this meal; this is a nice way to fool myself into eating something healthy. My hubby also said it was "DELICIOUS!!!" - 5/3/11
