AUNT SQUISHY'S CASHEW BEEF STIR FRY



Aunt Squishy's Cashew Beef Stir Fry image

Not all stir-fry has to use the same flavor profile. Enjoy the convenience and ease of one-pot cooking with this sharp and tangy dish. OPTIONAL: 1 tsp of red pepper flakes gives it some nice kick but you can add more if you really enjoy heat. SUGGESTION: I like serving this stir fry over cooked white basmati or jasmine rice but it's versatile enough to work great with just about anything!
