	| This is very good. I added about 1/2C water with corn starch to make it a little more gravy and left out the mushrooms (found out that I forgot to buy them and of course I was already in the middle of cooking) served it with fried rice. This one is a keeper in our house. |  |

	| I wasn't a fan of this. It was a bit bland and I'm not a mushroom or green pepper fan. Possibly less ginger flavor and more of something else to add flavor, not sure what. |  |

	| Have to agree with Tess.  Wasn't my fave, though we had stir fry sauce here so I added some of that and it was better. |  |
