Sweet Wednesday

Last night was leftovers from Monday which were just as good if not better! 

Tonight I made a recipe from the Hungry Girl recipe, it was called "Sweet Coconut Crunch Shrimp" on page 379. Five shrimp (jumbo) equaled a serving which was 164 calories and only 4.5 grams of fat. For the main ingredient (breading) it had Fiber One bran cereal, coconut, bread crumbs, and some spices. Kevin gave this shrimp dish 4 stars. It was very easy to make. Prep time probably took about 20 minutes and then cook time was about 12 minutes. We did not even try to serve it to our little one. In general, she is not a big fan of shrimp. 

Along with the shrimp, we ate spinach and strawberry salad with a strawberry vinaigrette. The salad was not very high in calories either because the dressing was not creamy. The salad went well with the sweet coconut, it made a great summer dinner. What was even nicer is the fact that it is pretty cool outside so it was not a pain to have the oven on tonight. 

I think my next L-F and L-C dish will be pumpkin coffee cake from the American Heart Association Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol book. If you haven't bought these cookbooks, I would recommend them. Try checking them out at your local library before purchasing them.

Until next time!
