When I'm in the mood for Chinese food, I turn to this snappy recipe. The colorful nutty dish is sure to stir your creativity...substitute broccoli for the asparagus or add carrots and mushrooms.

We thought this was pretty good. I didn't have any vegetable broth, so I wound up using reduced sodium chicken broth. I think that may have altered the taste a bit. The dish definitely tasted like it needed a bit more salt (next time I'll use regular broth, not reduced sodium). I also used regular yellow onion instead of green. I threw in some matchstick carrots and diced water chestnuts as well. Lastly, I put the cashews in at the very end like another reviewer suggested. I liked the added crunch. Overall this was a very tasty meal. I'd definitely make this one again.
My husband loved this one
One of those really nice recipes because it is quick and you can substitute items that you have and need to use up which I did. I made this a couple of times but it looked so different each time I don't even think anyone knew. I skipped as much salt as I could each time because of health probs in my family. I added a few shredded carrots the first time and frozen peas and some chopped onion the second time.I also seasoned this one side one way and one side the other. Sounds silly I know but I love sesame oil and the DH can't have it AND he loves cashews and I don't, so I made a sort of line in the middle and put cashews on one side (had to be unsalted) and sesame oil on the other. Either way it was great. The one other thing I liked about this dish was that it was easy to make to accommodate as many servings as I needed.

Flavors blend so well. I will tweak it to add more veggies!
I just made this dish for my family. It was very easy to make and was absolutely delicious!
This simple, easy to make dish is quite delicious. I did not add the cashews until it was done, so they would not get soft in the leftovers. Also, I added a bit of cooked chicken to round it out for my husband. Thanks for this recipe.
