Garlic Butter Shrimp

 I love to take recipes that are typically high calorie and make them Noom friendly. This dish is one of my favorites and it's very easy to convert. Sorry, but no step-by-step instructions on this one because I was hungry and simply forgot!



The recipe is easy to make. First, put 2 oz of whole wheat spaghetti in cold water and heat to boiling then boil till tender. I always use the cold start method because it uses less water and cooks faster. While the pasta is cooking, spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and add 2 Tbl of chopped red or yellow peppers. Cook till almost tender, just a minute or two, and add a clover of garlic finely chopped and 1 Tbl green onions chopped. Add to the veggies 2 Tbl of Smart Balance Olive Oil Spread (or you can also use Earth Balance Olive Oil Spread) and let it melt. Add salt and pepper or lemon pepper. Keep warm. Just before the pasta is done, add the shrimp and toss just till warm. Do not overcook or they will be rubbery. Spoon mixture over drained pasta on a plate and top with 2 Tbl shredded parmesan.
