All of our sweeteners will work in this but we recommend a smidgen of Naturally Sweet Monk Fruit Extract.

Delicious and so quick and easy to make this low carb, sugar free, gluten free dish is a dish the whole family will love.

Lot of little tweaks make it a really versatile recipe, such as increasing protein by adding tofu or paneer, or use the veggies you have on hand for a 'clean out your fridge' dish.
