This was ok. I was looking for something to make with leftover turkey and after tasting it I think it would have been better with raw turkey added at the same time the veggies are being cooked. The recipe calls for drained pineapple, and someone mentioned theirs being "a big goopy mess" so I drained my pineapple, but kept the juice just in case. Once I added the turkey to the veggie mix, I too found it very thick and goopy so I just added the reserved pineapple juice. I would also personally cut back on the amount of veggies and turkey just a bit because there really isnt a whole lot of sauce if you plan to serve this over rice, I also found the rice removed alot of the flavor, I plan to do something else with my leftover rice and I'll eat the leftover sweet and sour alone.

I didn't think this tasted like sweet and sour at all. It was definitely missing something. I tried adding vinegar and that helped, but it still needed more flavor. We ended up pouring on bottled sweet and sour sauce.

Well, I'm sorry to bring the average rating down, but in the interest of fairness to people with tastes like *my* family, this wasn't good. I will say, I did not follow exactly as I used carrots, onion, and corn for our veggies, but other than that, I did follow it exactly. I can't explain it fully, but the flavors just did not go together well, and it was a big, goopy mess, that even served with rice was just not good. Sorry.

This is a pretty good recipe, the vegetables I used was onion, carrots, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and pineapple. The sauce is very thick so make sure you use all of the pineapple juice.

I was missing the celery and almonds for this recipe but it was still very good.

My husband and I both really enjoyed this recipe. Most stir fry dishes I've made don't have enough sauce, but this one had plenty. I didn't have any chicken broth, so I used Campbell's condensed vegetable broth diluted with one can of water. I had some broth left over which I used instead of water to cook the instant rice that we put the stir fry on.

This was an excellent recipe. Very easy to do as well. I added snap peas and broccoli to the veggies, I used EVOO and sesame oil instead of the butter and skipped the almonds because I didn't have any. I also used fresh pineapple. I will make this again. Thanks for the great post!
