"A new recipe a neighbor gave us. What a hit with my family. Just the right mixture of garlic and cashews with our favorite side dish, broccoli. And, so very easy to make!! If in a pinch, you could probably use frozen broccoli too, but I haven't tried."

Ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces 1/3 cup butter (or margarine) 1 tablespoon brown sugar 3 tablespoons soy sauce

2 teaspoons white vinegar 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/3 cup chopped salted cashews

Directions:

1.	Place the broccoli into a large pot with about 1 inch of water in the bottom. Bring to a boil, and cook for 7 minutes, or until tender but still crisp. Drain, and arrange broccoli on a serving platter.
2.	While the broccoli is cooking, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Mix in the brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, pepper and garlic. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat. Mix in the cashews, and pour the sauce over the broccoli. Serve immediately.		My friend Shauna from MOPS made and delivered this the week after I had Madison!  So yummy!
