Caribbean Shrimp Bowl

  Dinner

After switching to a paleo diet a few years ago, we have started eating tons of veggies for almost every meal—yes, even breakfast. We’ve just gotten used to swapping carbs like rice or potatoes for cauliflower, broccoli and kale. This bowl is literally chock-full of veggies and has tons of Caribbean-inspired flavor! Plus, it is so simple to make and uses one skillet!
