“Great choice for lunch Jenna! Cashew chicken is not only delicious but also provides lean proteins and healthy fats from the chicken and cashews and a good amount of fiber from the rice and broccoli. Including leftovers is a smart way to save time and still have a nutritious meal. Keep up the good work and enjoy your meal!”
