Every month when I work on our menu, I try to find some new recipes to add to the rotation. I found this one in a cookbook that Todd bought for me on one of his business trips. It turned out really great. I liked it a lot. It reminded me of the Cashew Chicken at Panda Express. The twins weren’t all the crazy about it, but that didn’t surprise me!
