Ingredients:  
1 batch Sunshine Sauce

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons coconut aminos or homemade substitute

2 teaspoons plus 1 teaspoon coconut oil

1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)

1 cup snap peas, thinly sliced lengthwise

2 cups cooked spaghetti squash

6-8 ounces cooked chicken, diced

GARNISHES:
chopped toasted cashews or almonds

sunflower seeds

sliced scallions

minced cilantro

squeeze of lime juice2 tablespoons lime juice

1 clove garlic, minced (about 1 teaspoon)

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon coconut aminos or homemade substitute (not Whole30 compliant when made with substitute)

1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger

1/2 teaspoon rice vinegar

1/4 cup sunflower seed butter (I like Sunbutter; Buy the organic variety with no sugar added)

dash ground cayenne pepper (optional)

1/4 cup canned coconut milk (only added ingredients should be water and guar gum)

Directions:
Directions:
Crack the eggs into a small bowl, and use a fork to scramble them with the coconut aminos. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, about 3 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons coconut oil to the skillet, and when it’s melted, pour in the eggs and let them spread like a pancake. Reduce the heat to medium and cover with a lid, letting the eggs cook until they’re set and beginning to brown on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and lightly brown the other side. Remove the eggs from the pan and cut into strips with a sharp knife.

Using the same pan, increase heat to medium-high and add 1 teaspoon coconut oil to the pan. Sauté the onion and snap peas, stirring with a wooden spoon, until they’re crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the spaghetti squash, chicken, and cooked egg to the pan and, stirring with a wooden spoon, cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

Add the Sunshine Sauce to the pan and stir-fry until everything is well-blended and hot. Divide among two plates, sprinkle with garnishes, and dig in.


Sunshine Sauce Directions:

Place all the ingredients except the coconut milk in the bowl of a food processor and whirl until well blended. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber scraper, then add the coconut milk. Process until it’s blended and smooth. Store covered in the fridge. (You could also put all the ingredients in a Ball jar and use a stick blender.
