Shrimp, zoodles, vegetables and a light homemade sauce make up this super, easy, tasty and healthy low-carb meal that’s ready in less than 30 minutes.
Whole 30 at its finest. Whether you agree with the whole 30 program or not, you can’t deny that meals like this are flat out healthy. No processed food, all natural ingredients. This recipe is not only extremely flavorful, it’s filling and done in less than 30 minutes.
Outside of using wild caught shrimp like Sizzlefish, the key to this is the sauce. When it comes to the seasoning, I encourage you to use the seasoning of your choice based on your dietary needs and preferences. I used The Spice Cave’s SEA seasoning. Obviously I wanted to keep this whole 30 compliant and The Spice Cave has a great line of whole seasonings. The rest of the sauce includes ingredients that you probably already have. When it comes to the stir-fry vegetables use your favorites. I had bell peppers and onions. Carrots and sprouts would be good additions as well.

Low carb shrimp with zoodles- you say low carb but could you possibly include the carb count? prea@earthlink.net

Hi Patti - that will depend on the ingredients you use but if you make it exactly as written then it has approximately 3g of carbs per serving. xShannon
