    Thanks for reading! This is my most popular recipe on my blog which you can find here: http://sallycooks.com/2013/06/27/crockpot-cashew-chicken/ Happy cooking!I know you know how bad take-out Chinese food is for your waistline and your wallet. The good news is that it is easy to make your favorites at home, using less sodium and more fresh or frozen produce.In about the time it takes to order and pick up Chinese, you can make a healthier version of cashew chicken with this simple, throw it all in the crockpot recipe. I think if I were to make this again I would roast the cashews to crisp them up and add them before serving rather than cooking them alongside the chicken. I used frozen broccoli but fresh would be fine too.I served with a green salad but my Better-than-Takeout Chicken Fried Rice would be a great side, just leave out the chicken.What to do:layer chicken, cashews and vegetables in the crockpotcombine remaining ingredients except water and pour over chicken in crockpotadd water or broth if necessary so mixture is almost completely coveredcook for 2-4 hours on high or 4-8 hours on low
