Thai chicken coconut curry with zoodles! This was one of the first recipes I developed when I started eating Paleo. It’s ridiculously flavorful and surprisingly easy to make. Great if you’re having Whole30 recipe fatigue or if you just want to make a lighter weeknight version of your favorite take out dish. Here’s what you need:
