Introduction

This is one of my favorite BBQ side dishes. If you wanted to make the recipe healthier, you could substitute Olive Oil for Canola Oil, Light Soy Sauce instead of regular Soy Sauce and Splenda in place of Granulated Sugar. My family loves to add a 4 oz can of small shrimp to boost the protein sometimes too. This is one of my favorite BBQ side dishes.
