OK but needs more vegetables

I’m really at a loss to understand why Georgie and Tom are not listening to their subscribers on this dish. The drumbeat has been consistent for more vegetables, yet nothing changes. It is particularly annoying because subscribers are requested to suggest ways that a dish could be improved. I was going to wait until I saw that people were being listened to, but I see I was misled by the last review.

The dish is tasty, w another very good sauce, easy to cook, w just a few steps, but the amount of broccoli and peppers is downright stingy, minuscule. I’m sorry I didn’t have something on hand to add. Hence I couldn’t help but deduct a star.

Great! Could use more broccoli

Super impressed with this meal! Great flavor, easy to make, rice microwaved perfectly. Tasted like a better version of our favorite takeout place up the street. My super picky husband loved it too. Only thing to improve upon, which is noted in the other reviews as well, is that it could include more veggies.

General Tso more like General Wow!

I got this thinking it was going to be like Chinese take away. Boy was I wrong so much better. I could eat the whole thing by myself!

Excellent dish

I really enjoyed this. Only feedback is that the sauce was a bit sweet and there should be more veggies. Lots of chicken and rice, but to me you can reduce those amounts and add more veggies so that it’s 1/3, 1/3, 1/3.
