Gluten-free Friday - Thai Chicken Stir-Fry

Off to the Can-Fit-Pro conference today! Hoping to meet tons of fitness professionals, athletes, colleagues and to learn a ton!

I'm a big fan of food. I'm an even bigger fan of taking a traditionally high-fat, high sodium, take out food that I avoid and making it Alli-friendly! Check out this gluten-free version of Thai Chicken Stir Fry! Make a big batch and keep it in your fridge for an easy dinner on-the-go.
