As I've said before, I love making Hungry Girl foil packs. They are quick, easy, and always turn out moist and yummy. This recipe had TONS of veggies in it, which I love. You get so much food for so little calories - awesome!
My main complaint about this recipe was the lack of sauce. For all those veggies, there was only 3 tablespoons of oyster sauce, along with a little rice vinegar. I like to be able to taste my sauce! Plus, when everything is cooked in the foil pack, the veggies release quite a bit of liquid, watering down the already too-small amount of sauce. In other words, this recipe needs more sauce!
To compensate, I ended up adding soy sauce to my serving. Although it adds a lot of sodium, it doesn't really add any calories, and it was worth the added flavor this dish was desperately needing. If you make this recipe, it might be worth it to add a tablespoon of lower calorie stir-fry sauce to each serving for more flavor. I have found ones for only 20 calories a tablespoon that taste great. The portion size alone is a good reason to make this dish, even though it needs a little help!
