I'm not sure what went wrong, but my Moo Shu Beef turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have any flavor.

This recipe was a disaster! The beef was overcooked and the sauce was too salty. I ended up throwing the whole thing away.

I'm not a huge fan of Moo Shu Beef, but this recipe was pretty good. The sauce was tasty and the beef was tender.

The Moo Shu Beef recipe was easy to follow, but the end result was disappointing. The beef was tough and the sauce was bland. I won't be making this recipe again.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. The sauce is flavorful and the beef is tender. The addition of the vegetables makes it a complete meal.
