Sugar Snap Peas With Cashews

Submitted by lisar

"Sweet tender snap peas with a subtle orange sauce and cashews. Easy for every night dinner or nice enough for company. This is from the cookbook called the "The One-Armed Cook"- a cookbook geared to new moms. I am not a new mom, but I love the simplicity yet slightly gourmet touch of this book."
