Braised water chestnuts with mushrooms

Overview

Recently, friends in the WeChat circle have been retweeting a WeChat message - God made human beings to be vegetarians. It lists the various benefits of vegetarianism, which is amazing. It's always good to eat more fruits and vegetables, but whether or not to eat vegetarian meals is a matter of opinion. In fact, I always feel that breakfast should be good, lunch should be full, and dinner should be small but refined. But in fact, it is really difficult to do this if there is no full-time cook or husband in the family. Most people tend to eat casually for breakfast and lunch, but eat more and eat well for dinner. When I go to work, my mother does the cooking for me. If I were the cook, I would also like dinner to be lighter, with more vegetarian dishes.
