I didn't get to make this as planned a few days ago, but tonight, since
most people recommended cashews, I took some leftovers - was ground
beef, tomatoe sauce, and a few veggies, guess we'd call it Sloppy Joe -
and threw in a handful of cashews. It was _delicious_. This is
something we'll revisit in our house in the future - beef and cashews
seems like a very good combination.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
