55% less sat fat • 52% less fat • 21% fewer calories than the original recipe. We cut the fat in this dish by using less cashews. Brown rice and veggies raise the fiber.

This was really good. I doubled the sauce part so there would be some for the rice. I will definitely make this again. This dish had alot of flavor and was more healthy than what you would get in a restaurant.

I like that what the recipe is attempting to do (higher veggies, lower fat, lower salt), but unfortunately just didn't care for the flavor. It didn't remind me of cashew chicken, it tasted more like a typical stir fry with soy sauce.

Very tasty! We substituted roasted almond slivers (we roasted the almonds)in place of cashews since I'm not fond of cashews, and added 2 cloves chopped fresh garlic while cooking the chicken and gingerroot. Otherwise we followed the recipe exactly. Our family really liked! Think next time I'll use a white onion coarsly chopped in place of the green onions.

Really great dish quick to make when you can't think of anything to make for dinner. The sauce didn't get thick when I first added it in, added in a little extra cornstarch and water and it thickened up perfectly. I added mushrooms for a little more meaty taste to it. Great meal!

I omitted a lot of the ingredients. It came out okay, a little salty, possibly too much soy sauce? The cashews I bought were plain as well, but still tasted good.

Made this on a weeknight and found it to be easy to prep and cook. We aren't big fans of snap peas so I doubled the broccoli (our fave veggie). Found some ginger in a tube (refrigerated) and it really gave it a fresh flavor without having to chop. Omitted the green onions and used white rice instead of brown. Added the cashew pieces during last stage of cooking rather than after to get some flavor. Would also recommend adding Chinese-style hot mustard as a condiment - it really made the dish and it tasted like something you'd get at a hibachi restaurant.
