    Shrimp: 336 grams for 270 calories

    Thawed, dried, and tossed with Chef Pauls blackening seasoning. Cooked ~2 mins a side.

    Shrimp Sauce 70 calories: 1 tbsp cottage cheese (4%), 1 tbsp 1/3rd fat cream cheese, 1tbsp dijon mustard, added garlic powder, paprika, lemon juice to loosen. Added to pan with shrimp in the last ~1 minutes.

    Kale: 230 grams (raw) for 46 calories.

    Wilted in pan with some water than added a sauce of rice wine vinegar and gochujang, along with salt and pepper. Sautéed for a few minutes until reduced enough to fit on plate lol

    Mushrooms: 8 oz container of sliced baby bella mushrooms for 53 calories.

    Sauteed in pan for 2-3 minutes before adding a sauce mix which contained 2 garlic gloves ground in mortar, with ~1tbsp dark soy sauce, 1tsp balsamic vinegar, pepper and salt, paprika, onion powder, thyme.

    It was good, loved the mushrooms and shrimp. The shrimp sauce was a little too thick, needed to be thinned. I didnt love the kale, it was my first time making it so maybe I overcooked it because Ive liked it at some restaurants. I was getting full eating this (only my 2nd meal of the day with a ~7 hour gap since lunch) so I opted to finish the shrimp instead of the kale.

    Love shrimp and mushrooms. This plate looks delicious. I’ve never paired shrimp with a cottage cheese sauce, might try it out

    Wow! The trifecta of “low cal, high nutrient”.

    Wow! Volume eating at it’s finest. That looks scrumptious.
