Note
I want to serve this dish with a sweet and sour sauce, but I haven't developed one yet. If you have any ideas or know of a delicious sauce, please share it with us!
I made a sauce by chopping fresh pineapple in the food processor and adding coconut milk, chill for about 30 mins! Just like Red Lobster sauce! The shrimp needed a little salt 🙂
I made a sauce in the blender with frozen pineapple, a little jalapeno, one drop of honey, and some nam pla (fish sauce). Fantastic

I'm going to make these tonight, I don't have coconut flour, but I do have gluten free flour that will work. Where can I buy coconut flour that isn't outrageously expensive?
