Hey there - quick question! Is the amount of balsamic vinegar correct? I know it packs a punch, but it doesn't seem like a lot when compared to the other ingredients. But then again I might just be a balsamic vinegar fiend. 😊 Thank you!

Hi Bekky, it depends if you prefer more. I  don't use too much to keep the carbs low and 1 tsp is typically enough for a meal like this. Feel free to add 1/2 to 1 tsp more though!
