    I made this last night and my husband commented, " I'm glad you joined Sparks People!" Very tasty and easy to make. I doubled the batch so we had leftovers for lunch. Served it with brown rice and an eggplant/zucchini medley. - 9/25/08

    Delicious and very easy to make. I used Liquid Aminos instead. Served it with ground lamb and green beans. - 8/4/10
