I am always up for trying now only new foods, but the occasional diet as well (they only last about a week or so becomes I just love food, and want to eat what I want when I want), so I have paleo a try. This was actually one of my favorite dishes that I tried, and it was super simple. It’s literally just some shredded chicken drenched in buffalo sauce, some diced sweet potatoes, broccoli, onion, bacon, and then topped with some onion and scallion. Mix it all up and throw it in the oven for a bit and you are good to go!!!
