Whole30 Curry Coconut and Carrot Salad

Whole30 Curry Coconut and Carrot Salad

Believe it or not, I don’t do all the cooking in my house. When my husband and I did our first Whole30, we started meal planning. In order to split up the work, we divided our meal planning and cooking week by week. This recipe…
