I found this recipe in a little old cook book I picked up at a garage sale called Corn of Plenty. It has really good flavor, it's easy to make and uses simple ingredients. Use cole slaw mix for the cabbage to make it more convenient.

I liked this recipe but found it lacked flavour, even though you have all the vegetables in there. Not a bad little recipe, but does anyone have suggestions to give it that "Chinese Takeout" flavour?
