I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight.

That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food.

So excited to make this for dinner! I've got both chicken and cauliflauer. Do you think it would clash with a bit of spinach mixed in too? ❤️

Not at all, I've done that too! 😊 Keto Curried Spinach Paneer Skillet

Wow, what a fantastic recipe! I can't wait to make make this again and I've got some curry sauce left. Just wondering, does the sauce work well with shrimp too?

It does! Keto Curried Shrimp Zucchini Skillet

Oh, this dish sounds lovely! I love how you've kept it simple with chicken and cauliflower. Just curious, what other veggies would you use? 😊

Thank you! I'd try zucchini noodles, or cauliflower rice (still cauliflower but cooked differently). You could also try this with eggplant (aubergine) - diced and sautéed, or sliced and grilled.
