Shrimp cocktail is a special treat that’s also good for you. It’s one of the easiest, most indulgent yet good for you snacks. Choose between premade or homemade cocktail sauce (both are easy), but whatever you do, choose the low-sugar sauce with lots of horseradish. The spicy sauce will make you feel like you’ve really eaten something worth remembering, and the shrimp is high in protein but low in calories, which will keep you satisfied. Whip up some zucchini. For this quick and easy dish, you’ll need to finely chop a clove of garlic and a large clump of basil, plus a smal tomato and a small zucchini, which you’ll want to slice into bite-sized pieces. In a skillet (with a bit of olive oil), you’ll saute the garlic, then the tomato, and then zucchini, adding the basil last. Top it with lemon juice from a half of a lemon. This low cal dish is flavorful, filling, and simple. Go Greek with this sure-fire salad. The infusion of a small amount of very flavorful ingredients makes this salad stand out amongst others. Finely chop half a garlic clove and three kalamata olives. Create a salad dressing with a tablespon of oiive oil, a tablespoon of vinegar, and the minced olives and garlic. Fill your bowl with any low cal veggies you like – tomatoes, greens, celery, peppers, carrots – and drizzle this amazingly good and potent dressing over them. Top it off with freshly ground black pepper and a teensy sprinkling of grated cheese. Keep yourself thin by collecting low cal recipes that work for you.
