Anyone want to share low-fat (<30%) recipes that are quick and easy?
I'll start:
PESTO SHRIMP WITH PASTA
1 tsp olive oil
nonstick cooking spray
1 tsp minced garlic
2 tbsp chopped onion
1/2 tsp dried basil
pinch salt
pinch oregano
4 oz medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tbsp parmesan cheese (I use light cheese, and not quite this much)
1 tbsp slivered blanched almonds
2 oz angel hair pasta, cooked without salt or fat (I use whole wheat pasta)
In a skillet sprayed with nonstick vegetable cooking spray, over medium-high heat, add olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped onion. Sauté for 1 to 2 minutes. Add dried basil, salt, oregano, and shrimp. Stir and cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until shrimp is cooked and turns pink. Toss shrimp mixture with hot cooked angel hair pasta. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and slivered almonds. Makes 1 serving.
