Clams with Chorizo and Miracle Noodles

Beth Bollinger of Nest Wellness
This tasty dish was inspired by Andy Baraghani's recipe for clams with ham and butter beans. I made this dish with all of the flavor of his wonderful dish but made it low carb and blood sugar friendly. I hope you love it as much as my family does! If you haven't seen Andy's cookbook "The Cook You Want To Be", check it out.
