Coconut Curry Shrimp and Spinach with Roasted Broccoli

*Adapted from www.paleodietlifestyle.com

2 lbs shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 bag fresh spinach, chopped (original recipe called for 2 cups--I think this is more like 4)

1 onion, chopped

1 garlic clove, chopped (my addition)

1 tsp fresh grated ginger (my addition)

2TBS coconut oil

2TBS tomato paste

2 tsp curry powder

1 C full fat coconut milk

1/2 cup chicken stock (could probably do without)

salt and pepper to taste

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet and add onion, garlic and ginger and saute until soft. Season with S&P and add curry powder and cook for an additional minute. Place half of mixture (original recipe says all of it) in blender and add tomato paste, chicken stock and coconut milk and puree until smooth. Pour mixture back into skillet and bring to a simmer. Add shrimp and cook for a few minutes until they start to turn pink. Add spinach and cook until just tender.

For the roasted broccoli, I just toss broccoli with a TBS or so of olive oil, S&P, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place on a baking sheet and roast at 450 for 10 minutes. Works as a good snack too!
