By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?
Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.
We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.
Spoonacular is not responsible for any adverse effects or damages that occur because of your use of the website or any information it provides (e.g. after cooking/consuming a recipe on spoonacular.com or on any of the sites we link to, after reading information from articles or shared via social media, etc.)

Crockpot Cashew Chicken requires around 10 minutes from start to finish. This recipe serves 2 and costs $4.07 per serving. One serving contains 659 calories, 63g of protein, and 28g of fat. Head to the store and pick up pepper flakes, ginger paste, chicken breasts, and a few other things to make it today. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free and dairy free diet. It is brought to you by spoonacular user Sally Cooks. It works well as a rather pricey main course. Users who liked this recipe also liked Cashew Nut Chicken, Cashew Butter Chicken, and Thai Stir-Fry Chicken With Cashew Nuts.
Thanks for reading! This is my most popular recipe on my blog which you can find here: http://sallycooks.com/2013/06/27/crockpot-cashew-chicken/ Happy cooking!
I know you know how bad take-out Chinese food is for your waistline and your wallet. The good news is that it is easy to make your favorites at home, using less sodium and more fresh or frozen produce.
In about the time it takes to order and pick up Chinese, you can make a healthier version of cashew chicken with this simple, throw it all in the crockpot recipe. I think if I were to make this again I would roast the cashews to crisp them up and add them before serving rather than cooking them alongside the chicken. I used frozen broccoli but fresh would be fine too.
I served with a green salad but my Better-than-Takeout Chicken Fried Rice would be a great side, just leave out the chicken.
