  1. Spicy!

  2. Agreed, it is spicy, but yummy! I did not cook my carrots in the microwave first as I like them to retain some crunch!

  3. Broccoli absorbed all the Ginger. First bite damn near blow my nose off my face! But getting used to it – not too bad actually…

  4. I have to agree with Lenarz’ comment, would have blown fire through my nose after the first bite, great flavor though!

  5. Definitely not my favorite recipie. It just didn’t taste good and I’m no picky eater.

  6. I am not a big spicy fan and either are my kiddos, so I quartered the ginger, halved the pepper flakes and added some Braggs aminos to taste and they liked it :)

  7. If I try this one again, definitely going to cut down on the pepper and maybe even the lemon juice.

  8. Pretty good for dinner but not yummy as left overs for lunch the next day :-(

  9. I made this last night and the flavors were dead on! I double the sauce and kept the beef juices in for a little more flavor… the beef wound up being a little tough, I think I cooked it too long. But I’ll definitely be trying this again – love the spiciness.
