Tried, Tasted, and Loved!

Tried, tested, and truly enjoyed — here’s a real review from someone who cooked it too.

Thank you for the recipe!

This dish was amazing. I cut 3 medium carrots on the bias, and this was a wonderful addition to the recipe; I was concerned there wouldn’t be enough sauce, but this recipe makes an abundance of sauce, which I love—so many of the recipes I’ve tried just don’t make enough sauce. I give this recipe ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and will use this exclusively and pass along to others! (Many other items can easily be added, as well.) Thank you so much for a fabulous tofu veggie stir-fry ????
