Monday Woes...
Trying to find a simple meal on a Monday is sometimes a struggle when you're looking for something different. I haven't eaten very much seafood over the past 11 years but I thought I would try something new tonight and I know that shrimp are pretty simple to cook.
This was quick and easy! It was a major hit with the kids! #winning This has to be added to the list of go-to meals!! A great way to get in a good dose of veggies! Any way to get the kids to get in their Veggies is a win all around for me! Especially when my son would rather eat meat all day and wouldn't touch vegetables with a 20 foot pole normally. Guess what!?!! He did tonight!! :)
So this is how I got this delicious meal together!!
1/2 cup of green onions
1 tbsp of Olive Oil
1 tbsp of Coconut Oil
3 tbsp of Original Teriyaki Sauce
Prep-
Wash & Chop Veggies
Rinse and season shrimp as desired (I used onion & garlic powder and pepper)
-Heat oil in Large Pan or Skillet on Medium high. I used olive oil and coconut oil because I love coconut oil. I defintely love the smell of the coconut oil! (I use coconut oil for everything... My hair, my skin, my food, and my dog! lol Can never go wrong with the coconut oil)
-Cook shrimp until pink. Remove Shrimp and set aside. Make sure to use a slotted spoon so that the oil and juice stay in the pan to saute the Veggies.
-Saute Garlic, Zucchini, Onions, Bell pepper and green onions until tender. Add in one by one so that the veggies have time to shrink so they can all fit.
-Add Broccoli cook for 5 mins stir continuously
-Return shrimp and add teriyaki sauce. Salt and Pepper if desired. I do not use salt so I just sprinkled on pepper.
In the future I will be sure to meal prep these Veggies to make it an even faster process. I did serve this on white rice but I plan on using Brown rice the next time I prepare this.
If you try this leave me a comment let me know how you enjoyed it!!!
