“<p>Man, this was fantastic. Only reason for 4 stars, is because I didn't follow the recipe exactly.</p><p></p><p>Cooked the beef first through to achieve the Maillard reaction (never drain beef fat!) then added veggies and seasoning and continued from there.</” — a cook, 4★
“Thought it was perfect as is with the addition of 1/4 c Rotel. I used an immersion blender to chop all the veggies after sautéing and to me tasted exactly liked Wendy’s.” — a cook, 5★
