“This was SO good. I’m celiac - I had a pot of water boiling to make a gf ramen because it comes in dense bricks. (Lotus Foods Millet and Brown rice - 1 package) I boiled for 6 minutes, strained and stirred in at the last step and covered/simmered for another 6” — a cook, 5.0★
“So yummy, healthy and flavorful!! I love a one pot dish. I followed the recipe exactly, including weighing my whole grain spaghetti and it turned out perfectly! I did add cornstarch to thicken and the sauce clung to the noodles and veggies perfectly. Everyone ” — a cook, 5.0★
