This recipe is pretty comforting as well. Like a blanket of happiness wrapped around meats. Ha. And since we don’t eat tortillas in this little paleo community of ours, I had to turn to the next best thing. Sweet potatoes.
This recipe is so easy that I threw it together for a quick weekday lunch. I loved the flavor. I loved the consistency. And I loved the fact that they weren't really noodles.
