Hi there! I just posted a new high-protein, low carb recipe. Pictures and nutritional details at http://sleevers.wordpress.com/2013/12/08/shrimp-with-cotijo-and-tomatillos/

Makes 4 bariatric servings, probably feeds two non-ops

Ingredients

• 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 jalapeno chiles, seeded, minced
• 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• 1/2 lb tomatillos, chopped
• Salt
• 1/8 cup water
• 1/2 lb shrimp, cleaned, deveined
• 1/2 cup Cotija queso seco cheese (can substitute feta)
• 1/8 cup chopped cilantro
• Lime juice
• Black pepper

Method

1. Heat oil in a pan. Add the onions and jalapeños, cook for 5 minutes on medium high until the onions begin to brown.
2. Add the garlic and cook a minute more. Add the tomatillos, reduce heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes, until the tomatillos are cooked through, but still hold their shape. Sprinkle salt over the tomatillos as they are cooking.
3. Add the 1/8 cup of water.
4. Add the cheese and shrimp and cook until the shrimp cook through, about 10-15 minutes.
5. Remove pan from the oven.
6. Right before serving, mix in the cilantro and sprinkle with lime juice and freshly ground black pepper.

Really?? What a pity. It's actually one of the easiest things for my sleeve and my husbands as well. Fish and shrimp sit so much easier than beef or chicken.
