    Good
    This recipe gets 5/5 for taste, 5/5 for ease in making. I gave this 3/5, because it has higher sodium, and no vegetables.
    My husband and I used reduced sodium soy sauce, 1/2 the rooster sauce, 1T of pepper flakes, and made a bag of frozen veggies to mix with it.     - 6/12/10

    1 tsp of Siriacha, I assume is the rooster sauce, has 100mg sodium. If you cut back on that and use the low sodium soy sauce, it would reduce the sodium greatly. I'm going to try this one out soon. - 5/31/10

    Haven't tried it yet, but to SWIM 2 SLIM, try using low-sodium soy sauce. My guess is that's where a large portion of the sodium is coming from. It's what I would use for the same reason. - 5/27/10
