Here's the shrimp cake recipe: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2013/05/jalapeno-shrimp-cakes.html
Next time I'll leave jalapeno seeds in. It needed some more kick. I'll make it again, but it was pretty messy. Handling shrimp goop isn't the most appetizing. I'm glad my hubby wasn't around for the actual prepping part. I didn't pull out my food processor, an just used my Magic Bullet. This left some big chunks of shrimp, but I appreciated the texture difference. Nutrition info in recipe.
This quinoa salad was sooo goood: http://damndelicious.net/2014/04/09/one-pan-mexican-quinoa/
It'll definitely become a regular dinner dish. So flavorful! I did the math this morning and these are the numbers for the whole batch: 109 gr protein; 2,227 calories; 293 carbs; 36.5 gr fat. I estimated that my serving size (maybe 1/3 cup) is about a 32nd of the whole thing. Makes a lot of food!
Quest Bar Peach Cobbler: http://blog.questnutrition.com/cooking-clean-with-quest-peach-cobbler-with-fitmencook-and-blogilates/
It hit the spot perfectly, and it was so easy! Well after I burned and threw out the first Quest Bar. Lol. Next time I won't add sweetener to the filling. My Protein powder was sweet enough (Vanilla Body Fortress), and I didn't sweeten the crust mix either. I portioned it into four 4oz ramekins, used fat-free whipped cream instead of Greek yogurt, and it came out to 11 gr protein and 110 cals each. Not too bad!
