A colorful and tasty side. Made as written. The light flavors of this dish did leave DH reaching for more for more soy sauce, although he said that it was very tasty. Made for Veg*n Swap 2009 Thanks for the post.

    Wonderfully easy and tasty — did use green pepper in place of yellow. Goes from stove to table so quickly. Makes alot — and think it will reheat well. May try it with a touch of teriyaki sauce next time. Great pictures --- this is really how it looks!

    This was great! I loved the way the broccoli kept a bit of crunch and stayed so green - a nice contrast against the peppers. Thanks for posting it.
