Chicken, Eggplant, Tomato and Spinach Skillet
This has got to be one of the easier things I’ve made lately. One meal, one pan = fast and delicious!
This is an almost perfect meal. It’s Paleo, gluten free and loads of vegetables, It’s also vegan optional by just omitting the chicken. You could substitute tofu or add some quinoa to ramp up the protein factor.
Just chop your veggies ahead of time and the rest of the recipe comes together within minutes. You could eat this right out of the pan or top some brown rice pasta or quinoa.
