This recipe is very simple and quick to make.  Essentially toss all of the fresh ingredients into the pan, put some heat through them to soften them up, and you are all set for a great meal.  It also works great with asparagus (which is actually what is pictured here).

This dish is AIP friendly, but is a great meal for most any dietary concerns (or lack there of).  If you can, you could pair this with some rice as well to round out the meal a bit fuller.
