    I was so excited about this dish. I made it exactly. The spaghetti was very plain and lacking in any real flavor. It was ok but nothing really popped. As for the meat balls they had good flavor but were a bit mealy. Make sure you measure the rice cereal first before putting it in the food processor otherwise you will have to much and make them heavy and dry. I was really disappointed with this dish overall.

    one of my husbands favorites!!!! Yummy! I mix up the veggies and add different ones, which adds lots of color. While I realize that this is not Chinese food (most chinese places don't make traditional food that you would find in China the flavors are great and for this Italian, it was a new and fun way to have spaghetti and meatballs!!!

    This recipe was GREAT! I couldn't find the meat it asked for but I used ground turkey. The Meatballs were awesome. I would recommend using very little of the seed oil.

    The pasta was great! I LOVED all the fresh veggies in it. It was so healthy & fresh tasting. I made the meatballs out of ground turkey & I couldn't find 5 spice powder in any store around here. I seasoned them with other seasonings. They weren't bad but I could have just left them out & made a meal out of the pasta alone. However, I have since ordered some 5 spice powder online. So, next time I make this, I will make my meatballs with ground pork or chicken like Rachel suggested & will use the 5 spice. Then, I will be able to accurately rate the meatballs. Regardless, the pasta is AWESOME!

    This was sooo good!! I made it a fun night and we ate with chop sticks to make it feel like we were eating take out! I also just used meatballs (italian style w/lots of garlic lol that i had already made that were frozen. They tasted great with this meal even though she calls for those specific spices, in which i did not have any on hand. I also cut the soy sauce in half (which you do not need to buy that expensive brand, it tasted exactly like regular soy sauce dont waste your money and i added terriaki (sp sauce in it to thicken the sauce. I also added green peppers & broccoli and it was just delish!
    Thanks Rach!!

    So easy and so delicious. I'm eating the leftovers for lunch right now (note: this dish is even better as a leftover as the flavors have more time to marinate into the pasta and meatballs. The flavor was surprisingly impressive and pulling it all together was super quick and easy. The five spice powder in the meatballs was spot on and created great flavor. I did use ground turkey and regular breadcrumbs and the result was great. Next time I might try to add a little red pepper flake to the veggies to give them a kick and will cut the veggies into larger chunks so they don't break apart so easily. This dish gave my boyfriend and me dinner and two days worth of lunch each. It's an easy recipe to memorize and whip up over and over again. Winner!
