This recipe was a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to the sauce.

The vegetables in this recipe were a bit overcooked for my liking. I would recommend cooking them for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less maple syrup or adding a bit of vinegar to balance out the sweetness.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it always turns out delicious. I usually serve it as a side dish, but it's also great as a main course.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables! My kids loved the sweet maple sauce and the crunchy pecans. I will definitely be making this again.

I made a few substitutions to this recipe and it still turned out great! I used honey instead of maple syrup and walnuts instead of pecans. I also added a bit of garlic powder and onion powder to the sauce. It was a delicious and easy side dish.

This recipe was a hit! The maple sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and savory, and the pecans added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this again.
