Gluten, Dairy, & Soy Free

These snap peas are a lovely Spring and Summer side dish to round out your meal. They are super simple, but loaded with flavor and healing foods like ginger which is very helpful for digestion and reducing gut inflammation. Try this dish paired with my Crockpot Roasted Turmeric Chicken and Salty, Cinnamon Sweet Potato Fries for a perfectly balanced anti-inflammatory meal! You can use sugar snap peas, snow peas or even green beans in this recipe - which ever you prefer:)

Ginger Sugar Snap Peas: (PRINT RECIPE)
Serves 4

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon sesame oil
4 cups snow peas or sugar snap peas, trimmed (or even green beans)
1-3 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced (depending on how "gingery" you like it)
1 tablespoon coconut aminos (a gluten & soy free soy sauce substitute)
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the snow peas/sugar snap peas and saute 3 minutes. If you are using sugar snap peas, you may need to increase your cooking time to 5 minutes. Green beans will need 7-10 minutes.
Add the ginger, stir well, and continue to saute for another 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in coconut aminos, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.
Serve hot!

Yum, yum, yum!! Enjoy....
