laksa-prawn-chicken-healthy-recipe

This incredible recipe is thanks to the amazing Beauty Chef! It will serve you and 4 beautiful friends, trust me if you serve this up they will be uber impressed!!

Otherwise whipit up and leave the leftovers for tomorrows dinner or lunch – winner winner chicken dinner. I love cooking once and eating twice.

As soon as you start cooking this, the aroma itself will make your mouth salivate. It is honestly so damn super delish.

Coconut is rich in lauric acid, which is anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and brilliant for gut-health.

I was a little nervous using sweet potato noodles, as I have only ever had zucchini noodles… let me tell you… these will be a staple moving forward! Super easy, super delish and far more nutrient dense than rice or noodles.

However, it will also pair beautifully with rice and noodles. Have a go and see what you prefer.
