– Serves 2
(And FYI “shrimpies” is just my personal cute name for shrimp…it’s not a weird or unique variety of shrimp…lol. Just to clear things up) 😉
- Make veggie noodles using a Veggetti – 1 large yellow squash and 1 large zucchini
- Saute’ 6-8 large shrimp in grapeseed or olive oil, seasoned with salt, pepper and spices of your choice. Liberally coated.
- Flip shrimp to other side after 2-3 minutes and cook until no longer translucent (4-5 minutes tops). Remove from pan.
- Cut veggie noodles once or twice to make smaller strands, and toss into pan.
- Heat through, coating in oil and seasonings from shrimp for 2-3 minutes. Add extra oil or spices if needed.
- Divide noodles into 2 servings and top with shrimp.
DONE!!!
Can you believe it? I told you it was fast! I honestly think the whole dinner is cooked in under 10 minutes. If your shrimp are fresh or already defrosted that will save time, and honestly the longest time is spent twisting the squash into noodles (4-5 minutes, tops). Enjoy! ~Melody
I cant’ believe I’m already at the end of Day 5 on my 30 Day Self Improvement Challenge–combining 30 days of a no-sugar eating plan + 30 days of the #miraclemorning personal development regimen.
I wanted to respect your inbox and not blast it every single day, but I’m still going strong over here and am excited to share with you some great tips and insights that you can benefit from too!
Being a Doctor of Physical Therapy I decided that since I’m doing daily exercise as part of the #miraclemorning routine anyway, I might as well demonstrate certain techniques and how to do things correctly and incorrectly at home, to make it extra useful to you!
Here are the links to the daily videos I’ve made:
- Day 3 – Side Kicks video Plus I show you my 30 day daily exercise calendar. If you want one of your own just let me know and I’ll pass it on!
- Day 4 – 4 leg stretches for the 5 major muscle groups of the legs (great for after cardio)
- Day 5 – Side Lunges video Great for inner and outer thigh toning and stretching.
Just these 5 days that have gone by my legs are sore (in a good I-worked-them-out kinda way) which is great, and I can already tell I’m losing some bloating from taking out the carbs and added sugar (only sugar comes from a little fruit each day).
What’s so great is that when I do eat the fruit (typically in my morning smoothie, or frozen red grapes for dessert) the sweetness is heightened more than ever and it tastes great! Because I’m not masking my tastebuds throughout the day with sugar that I’m not even aware of! I now have even gotten used to not adding sweetner to my iced teas or americanos – that was a big one for me.
I’m beginning to appreciate the natural tastes of things – without being clouded by sugar and additives. *Score!*
Have a great weekend and if you’re interested in starting the Whole30 eating plan, or the Miracle Morning regimen, let me know and we can help each other out and keep each other accountable!
