Here I go again with honey...and barbecue sauce...and shrimp! haha I seriously cannot get enough of these three ingredients and I love using them in so many ways. So let's get to it shall we?!
Let's start with the Honey BBQ Salad Dressing...what is so nice about it? It is mayo free and low in fat!
Prep time: 10 minutes
(I added milk to make it thinner so that is not pictured here...sorry!)
1/2 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
1/2 cup low fat milk
1/2 cup your favorite Barbecue sauce
1 tbsp.honey
1/4 tsp. pepper
)
Instructions:
1. Mix all together!
Now I used this dressing to go over my shrimp and avocado salad. So let me tell you how I cooked my shrimp without any butter and also kept it low in fat!
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 6 minutes
Yields: 30 shrimp
Ingredients:
1 tsp. olive oil
1/3 cup chicken broth
1 tbsp. lime juice
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. cilantro flakes
Instructions:
1. The prep time comes from getting your shrimp ready. Make sure you de-shell and de-vein your shrimp.
2. In a pan, heat the olive oil on medium heat.
3. Then add your shrimp.
4. Then add the rest of the ingredients and cook about 3 minutes on both sides of the shrimp until they are pink.
Cooking it this way gives the shrimp enough flavor but doesn't drown the shrimp in tons of flavors and washes away the light fresh taste. It's perfect!
To create the salad I used fresh chopped Romaine lettuce, 10 pieces of shrimp, avocado, and red bell pepper. Yum Yum Yum! Then top with a little bit of the Honey BBQ Salad dressing and you have a healthy light dinner :)
