Thai Curried Saute with Ground Chicken
bell peppers / pineapple
We first featured this meal in October of 2013 and wanted to bring it back in a different version. This time the paleo version is more of a curry saute (instead of using cauliflower rice). We know it'll still be a hit though!
Smarts: Pineapple is sweet and tart and makes a great flavor contrast to savory.
