A must have on a cold day when you’re trying to eat right but need that comfort food in your life. My husband created this recipe on a winter night when we committed to the paleo lifestyle. He would also make this dish on nights when we had friends over for dinner who were eating low-carb. This recipe has become our family and friend’s favorite. This recipe will hands down, satisfy your cravings…
