This sounds very tempting. With the rice, is it raw or "instant" ? Will save this--looks very flavorful! thank you.

I love this recipe Nellie and cashews are one of my favorite ingredients to play around with. I have them stored in my freezer so they stay fresh. Then when I do a stir fry and can just plop some on the top for extra protein, crunch and flavor.

I will try this rice and this one alone made we want to subscribe to you!
I rate this a '5' as well.
