What do the Moderators eat?

So, I am starting this post and we will see who chimes in. -------------- Vitality shows not only in the ability to persist but the ability to start over. - F. Scott Fitzgerald

I seriously follow the bodybuilders grocery list. I use everything in there. It does not have to be boring, a bit of creativeness makes eating healthy a breeze....for instance....Lemon shrimp with Asparagus.... 8 ounces uncooked rotini or other small-shaped pasta 1/2 pound fresh asparagus 1/2 cup lemon juice 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 pound medium to large raw shrimp, cleaned with tail off (or 2 cups frozen, thawed shrimp) 1 cup sliced green onions 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese Salt and pepper to taste Wash asparagus and snap off tough larger ends. Cut asparagus in to bite-sized pieces. Cook pasta according to directions. During last couple minutes while pasta is cooking, add the asparagus and cook until crisp-tender. Drain and keep warm. Combine lemon juice, garlic, brown sugar, red pepper flakes and olive oil and mix well. Add shrimp and green onion and toss to coat. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until hot. Add shrimp mixture and cook over medium low heat until shrimp turns pink, 3-5 minutes. Add cooked pasta and asparagus and toss to coat. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve immediately. Makes 4 Servings Serving Size: 12 ounces -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.... bb1fit@freetrainers.com
