ReplyDeleteWow, you have some great WW recipes here! Thanks for sharing them :)

I stumbled onto your website just yesterday. Let me say, as a person who just started WW, who LOVES food, LOVES recipes, LOVES cooking and LOVES vegetable gardening, your website is truly a spectacular find.
ReplyDeleteI made this recipe tonight - unbelievable! Your recipes are all so simple to pull together - and anyone who cooks a lot just "knows" when a recipe is going to work or not. I've not seen one on this site that I don't think will be exceptional.
Thanks, Gina - I'm excited about WW, and your website will be a constant companion.
And for full disclosure: I used Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar instead of the lime. My lime tree is bare right now! :/ So, whenever I see a recipe that calls for just a bit of lemon of lime, and I don't have one, I substitute the vinegar. Seems to me the point is to add a touch of acid for brightness, and a bit of sweetness, and SRWV does both, without having to run to the store.
ReplyDeleteThanks Patrick! I love to cook, eat and garden as well! Food is all I think about :) Of course, I have my days when experimenting doesn't work out, but those recipes don't get published. It's a challenge remaking some favorites without all the fat and yet still tasting like exceptional, but I enjoy the challenge.
ReplyDeleteI added dill weed to this recipe and it was excellent.
ReplyDeletePeter, how prescient of you! I just came back to this comments section to say I used this basic recipe to recreate an old favorite pasta salad of mine, which had shrimp and dill in it! It also had tons of mayo and olive oil - but with a couple of minor changes to this recipe, it was every bit as wonderful as my old favorite. Possibly better, because it's better for me!
ReplyDeleteGina: I really don't mean to verge on spamming this particular comments section - but this recipe is just so great I can't help myself. I am about to make this AGAIN...for the third time this week! Now if my cucumber plants would just grow a little faster...

Made this again tonight - added some very finely minced pickled jalapeƱos with juice (deleted lime), changed the spices up a bit. *sigh* I'm addicted. Now on to the Turkey Stuffed Zucchini...
ReplyDeletePatrick that's a great idea! I'll have to give that a try!
ReplyDeleteThis recipe is the gift that keeps on giving. The seafood guy at Safeway even asked why I was buying a pound of shrimp so frequently! Tonight, I did the jalapeno thing, but realized I was out of light mayo. However, I did have some Kraft Fat Free Thousand Island Dressing - so I substituted. I also added a little low salt ketchup to increase the tomato taste. It was great! Kind of like Shrimp "Louis".
ReplyDeleteI LOVE shrimp and this looks so good! I will have to try this and soon!
ReplyDeleteWow- this site is such a great find! I returned to WW three weeks ago and have been struggling. Ahh this looks like food I really want to eat, can eat and stay on point. Thank you thank you
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
ReplyDeleteI've been drooling over many of your delicious-sounding/looking recipes and am going to make this one soon, can't wait! I started WW last Nov., lost 25 lbs in 5 mo's and my loss has inspired friends (married couple) and my hubby to follow the WW plan as well! :o) Ok, back to cruising your wonderful recipe pages...
ReplyDelete@Jann- Ooh, almost forgot about this one. I think I'll make this one again this week!
ReplyDeleteLook Great! What are the nutrition facts for this recipe?
ReplyDeleteSo i feel a litte dumb asking this but what is Old Bay seasoning? I've never heard of it and my grocery store didn't have it. Also is there something else I can use as a substitute for it?
ReplyDeleteI made this today - Delicious!!! My husband and I had a hard time not eating it all in one meal. I did use precooked shrimp to save time, and I sprinkled a little extra Old Bay on top. Other than that, I made the recipe as is. Yum-o!
ReplyDeleteI don't know of a substitute for Old Bay, but I've never had trouble finding it. I should mention that I've never found it on the spice isle. I always find it right around the meat/seafood counter.
My mother used to make something similar to this and it was incredible. It was chopped more like a chunky dip and served with Old London whole wheat melba toast. I am definitely trying this one out! All your recipes look amazing!
ReplyDeleteMade this for lunch today-SO good! Nice and light and super easy. I boiled the shrimp in Old Bay and salt and also added extra Old Bay to the dressing. Thank you for another great recipe!!
