Shrimp and Spinach Stir-Fry
I never ate shellfish growing up. Not only do they look and smell weird, but perhaps my earliest memory is eating shrimp at some seafood joint and promptly getting sick. Never again, my stomach vowed. But now that I’m on the AIP, it seemed silly not to rotate in every single one of the “allowed foods” at least once. Thanks to Noah’s skillet skills and his love for and familiarity with seafood of all sorts, my first taste of shrimp was awesome.

Very good lemon garlic flavour! Easy to make! Used combo of spinach, kale, tatsoi, arugula. Very yummy! Would also be nice over zucchini noodles to add more veggies.
What a great idea, Lynn! I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe!
