2 table spoons of smart balance butter (only 10g of fat ...no hydrogenated oil or sat fat)
3 garlic cloves
1/2 cup of white wine
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
garlic powder
salt & pepper
parmsean cheese (sprinkle on after meal) optional

saute garlic cloves in the butter for 2 minutes.....then throw your shrimp in along with the other ingredients...cover it an let it sit for about 15 minutes on low heat.

it works well over whole wheat pasta or brown rice....

Yep, I use it also - I like the taste & that it has no transfats....so I don't see a problem with it at all!! As with anything, just watch your portion size.....

it actually tastes the same as real butter...i can't tell the difference....

Any idea on the Macros excluding rice/pasta?

Thanks Crossy

I make my shrimp a bit different. Pretty much the same besides the white wine; I use olive oil, I add crushed red peppers, sea salt, 2/3 cups of fresh squeezed lemon, 1 whole lemon for the lemon zest, and parsley lol though everyone probably has their own way of cooking. Just thought I would share.

The only cooking oil I use is extra virgin organic coconut oil. There is nothing more healthy

Shrimp Scampi would be good over most any pasta
