    Again - way too high in sodium. I've had these at PF Changs, but that was before (or maybe why) I had to start taking 3 meds to control my blood pressure! - 11/4/09

    I do understand that this is still very high in sodium, but I could only imagine what the orginal at PF Chang's would be. The soy sauce is hte lower sodium and you could remove the teriyaki sauce. Any asian flavored lower sodium alternative would work fine here - everything else is veggies!!! :-)

    This was very good! It's spicy (and we like spicy), so I'll cut the red pepper flakes in half next time. I also doubled the chopped pepper, carrots and mushrooms. Good stuff! - 4/19/12

    Amazing!! incredibly filling and very flavorful!!! Will make again,, however i will use much less red pepper. I like spicey food and that 1 tablespoon was too hot for me. I think I will go with a teaspoon next time. But I was pleased!!! - 1/31/12

    Very Good

    These were really yummy...but, they were VERY spicy.(Even made my hubby's eyes water!) A previous review indicated they were on the spicy side and I agree. Good, but hot. If you aren't a spicy food lover, better reduce (or omit) the red pepper. - 5/14/10
