I'm making it right now...minus a few of the vegetables I don't like, and added a few I did. I can't wait to try it. I'm using left over pork chops for meat.

I just polished off a nice serving. Halved the recipe, and I didn't have the bean sprouts.
I used a little recycled chicken..........Next time..Swimps!!!

Two Thumbs Up Miss Lee!!

I was very pleased! I made the full recipe since I'm a rice freak. Glad to have leftovers for lunch today!!

I added a tad bit more brown sugar, and only used shallots and carrots for veggies since I'm a picky eater.

Update:

I was disappointed in my batch of rice tonight.

For one thing, I was 1/2 cup short of long grain rice so I added some arborio. Made it too sticky and the rices did not cook evenly (arborio was still a little too al dente).

Also, I used a cup of rehydrated shitake mushrooms and a pound of sliced fresh mushrooms, along with my other vegs. Not great. I far prefer this recipe with only the crunchy onions, pea pods, peppers, and bean sprouts, no spongy or chewy things.
