Quick Healthy Shrimp Dinner

Summer and I were super hungry the other night and wanted to make something that would be really quick. I threw together a healthy meal that took 25 minutes with prep time and almost no clean up. Look past the picture for the simple recipe.

Grilled Shrimp and Vegatable Kabobs
with rice and beans


Ingredients for Lowfat Shrimp and Vegetable Kabobs:

Trader Joes Peel Uncooked Tail on Frozen Shrimp

Onions

Tomatoes

Red Bell Peppers

Seasame Seeds

Microwavable Minute Rice

Canned Whole Balack Beans

Wooden Spears

Newmans Own Lowfat Sesame Seed Dressing

Gas Grill

Directions:

Chop the onions and bell peppers the same size squares

Pierce the Cherry tomatoes alternately with the onions and bell peppers

Pierce the Shrimp onto the kabobs
don't crunch them tight, they need room to cook)

Pour Seasame Seed Dressing all over the shrimp

Pour Seasame Seed Dressing all over the veggies

Add to hot grill (on high)

Should be ready after cooking for under 8 minutes

Microwave Beans and Rice for two minutes togehter

Not exactly a gourmet meal, but it sure turns out great for such a cheap, quick low fat meal meal. We were stoked. As you can see from the picture, we ate it family style off or my old bamboo cutting board with a "party size" glass of red wine (probably a cabernet).
