ASPARAGUS CASHEW RICE PILAF
This is an adaptation of an old Armenian recipe, and this variation is so delicious I can't stop eating it. It's a great way to stretch expensive seasonal asparagus and pricey cashews. It's great as a side dish or as a vegetarian entree.

ASPARAGUS AND CASHEW STIR FRY
The combination of fresh asparagus and crunchy, salty cashews is a winner. As a side vegetable it goes well with simple grilled fish, pork, and poultry. Or, I've just sauteed some cubed, boneless chicken breasts to the skillet before adding the asparagus. It's delicious either way.

This is so good. Just had it at my neighbors house this past week end. Had to ask her for the recipe. Will sure make this again on our grill. I think I will add a little Soy Sauce to mine when I make it, just to perk it up a little.
