It's not very often I do Thai food, but I love it when we can make it at home. Then I can guarantee it's free of nuts and gluten. This cooked up fast and disappeared even faster. (My husband did add some more spice to his after we'd separated our servings out.)

This is gluten-free, dairy-free, perfect addition to the 21 Day detox if you check labels for no sugars and no 'natural flavors'. If you want it a bit more spicy, add in red pepper flakes or diced jalapenos!
