Arleen REVIEW:

This recipe blew me away! I was browsing for an easy tuna stir-fry after babysitting my infant granddaughter all day. The sauce was awesome! My family devoured it. I substituted sugar snap peas (which I happened to have on hand) for the snow peas (which I didn't) and cooked them a bit longer. I also didn't have green onions so I chopped a few yellow onions along with some fresh chives into it. I can only imagine how much better the green onions would have been. Will definitely make this dish again and again.
