Cashew Chicken
I’ve been toying with this recipe for a while now and I’m quite happy with the results. Using the slow cooker, you get the “work” done early in the day making dinner time a breeze. I use that term loosely as this was very simple to put together. My whole family enjoyed it and even came back for seconds.
