We did not love this. The kids liked it and will have the leftovers for lunch but DH and I were not happy. I found the orange flavor was too strong. I've made sauces with orange juice before that we loved but I think here it is just left to stand mostly on its own and it becomes over powering.

This is great! I made this for mommy-daughter night. DD and I love tofu, DH doesn't. I used whole wheat spaghetti, the juice and zest of an orange. The veggies were green beans and broccoli. I reduced the garlic to 2 cloves. Yummy! Reheats well too. Thanks.
