As a broccoli lover, I have to say this recipe is really delicious! I made as written and would not change a thing when I make it again. However, if you like your cashews crunchy, I would suggest not adding them to the recipe until serving time. This makes a beautiful salad and would make a wonderful addition to any meal or gathering. Thanks so much for sharing, Zurie!
