Ok, let’s escape to paradise for the next few minutes…Imagine the sun shining on your face, the warm air hitting you like it does at the beginning of spring after a cold winter…You’ll want to enjoy something so tasty, you’ll want to remember that flavors forever! Well, this is that type of recipe… While driving around the islands of Hawaii you can’t help but see all sorts of “Shrimp Trucks” pulled over on the side of the road. I don’t mean one once in a while, I mean you will just about see one every mile!





I had gotten some recommendations about shrimp trucks before I even arrived in Hawaii,


and I’m so glad I did. I couldn’t get enough of this delicious shrimp!


Now we can’t all be flying off to Hawaii every time we dream of garlic shrimp, especially the most delicious garlic shrimp you’ve ever had.


With this recipe, you can now enjoy it ANYTIME, no airfare needed!


GARLIC BUTTER SHRIMP


INGREDIENTS

1 lb extra-large shrimp (deveined with shells on)

1 bulb garlic (freshly diced fine or pressed in a garlic press)

2 tablespoons garlic paste (pressed or use Gourmet Gardens like I did)

¼ cup olive oil

3 tablespoons butter

¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper

¼ teaspoon coarse kosher salt


INSTRUCTIONS

In a gallon zipper bag place shrimp with olive oil with 2 tablespoons garlic paste, crushed red pepper and salt.

Place in fridge for 1 hour.

In a 12" preheated cast iron skillet heat.

Add the bulb of garlic (crushed) with garlic and butter cook for a minute or two.

Then add the shrimp and cook while stirring occasionally until the shrimp are pink and fully cooked.

To avoid over-cooking the shrimp, place a lid over the shrimp the last minute or two as the last few shrimp are still turning pink.

Serve with rice and lemon wedges.

Be sure to have an extra bowl for shells and moist towels are great as well.

Skinny Bang Bang Zucchini Noodles Meal Prep

Skinny Bang Bang Zucchini Noodles Meal Prep These skinny bang bang zucchini noodles are an easy way to start your week. You can make multiple servings ahead of time, enough for a few meals during the week. We recently started to meal prep on weekends and so far I’m enjoying it. We only do it for lunch, but it helps us to eat healthier during the week and I have less stress of having to cook every meal. Normally, we keep things pretty simple for lunch anyway, but this is a lunch I look forward to given my love for bang bang sauce. The skinny part of this meal comes from two things. First, the pasta has been replaced zoodles. For me, this helps avoid major food coma sleepiness after lunch. Second, the sauce has also been lightened up, replacing half of the light mayonnaise with fat free Greek yogurt and reducing the amount of Thai sweet chili sauce. INGREDIENTS: 4 medium zucchini, spiralized 1 tbsp olive oil SAUCE 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp fat free plain Greek yogurt 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp light mayonn
