Cashew Chicken.

This recipe is going into the make again pile.  Here's what I learned:

  1. I used roasted/salted cashews instead of raw.  Cheaper, check.  Easier, check.
  2. 1.5 cups of onions was plenty.
  3. 10 oz package of sliced mushrooms was almost too much.  3 cups would have been mushroomfest 2011.
  4. When it says you may need to add some of the marinade back into the pan they really mean some.  I put it all back in and it was too saucy.
  5. I skipped the ginger.
  6. I used a sprinkle of green onion for color.
  7. Trader Joe's organic brown rice (freezer section) is one of my favorite things.  Microwave it for approximately 3 minutes and it's perfect.
