“This recipe was amazing!! So so so flavorful. I am partially low FODMAP so I did not include onions or garlic and used ancho chili powder. I was a little nervous that it wouldn’t be as flavorful as the original but I was so happy with the outcome! As a college” — a cook, 5.0★
“This is the BEST dinner I have ever made! I eat low fodmap, so subbed green onions instead of white and used garlic replacer. I also used mild green chiles like she suggested to make my life easier. TRULY SO GOOD. The perfect amount of spice and flavor.” — a cook, 5.0★
