  1. This is awesome! I adore peas and DH can't stand them...he did try these and wanted to know why I didn't fix more! We will fix again soon I'm sure.
     
  2. How about sugar snap peas with cashews? It was even better than I hoped it would be. Don't skip the orange peel (I used fresh, grated), it's wonderful with the cashews.
     
  3. This is a delicious veggie dish - the crispy snow peas and the smooth crunch of of the cashews are a nice contrast! I used olive oil rather than canola. This recipe is from "The New American Plate Cookbook," by the American Institute for Cancer Research and was in the Oregonian newspaper in March of 2005. Note: To toast the cashews, put them in a small skillet over medium-high heat and stir frequently for 2 to 3 minutes, until lightly brown; immediately transfer the nuts to a small dish and cool.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a mother of three and live in central Pennsylvania. My children were very active in after school activities and found we weren't spending anytime together at meal time. In 1998, I decided to start cooking my dinners in a crockpot so that we could have a home cooked meal together once everyone came home. My children now get so excited to see what we are having to eat and love the smell when they walk in the door. My family calls me the crock pot queen. LOL I use my crock pot everyday of the year. <br> <br>My three children are now in college and before they come home they request their favorite meal. I still continue to cook in the crock pot for my husband and I. It is nice after a long day to know your meal is ready. It also helps in keeping my grocery bill down. With zaar, I can print my shopping list and that is all I purchase is the ingredients on that list. <br> <br>Now, my two daughters have been crock pot cooking while in college. They find it is easy to cook for the themselves and their friends. It is an easy way to have friends over for dinner after classes <br> <br>I still love trying new recipes and purchasing cookbooks, especially crock pot cookbooks. <br> <br>Happy Cooking!
