Love this cashew beef and broccoli stirfry! Delicious!! - 10/27/17

Had this for dinner last night, threw in a couple of mushrooms and carrot matchsticks that I had in the frig, didn't add many calories, but lots of color. I think these are generous portions, fed 3 & had leftovers for at least 2 or 3. Paired with "foul proof brown rice" search for it - good stuff! - 3/30/11

I skipped the cashews and cornstarch, used frozen broccoli, and served over brown rice. I added a little honey and black bean sauce at the end for extra texture (since I didn't have cornstarch) and taste. Tasty! - 1/4/09

A little bland but maybe because I used low sodium soy sauce. I think I would add in more spices at the end. - 11/14/10

Delicious! I used apple juice instead of wine. Also, next time I will use low-sodium soy sauce because regular was a bit too salty. - 9/30/10
