Description

Based on a recipe from favorite brand name low-carb magic cookbook. If this isn't 5 stars it's because the cookbook title says "eat good food and lose weight" as opposed to "eat great food and lose weight"! You be the judge! I like it; i did swap out the vegetable oil with sesame oil. For a more attractive presentation, leave tails on the shrimp.
