Regal's LifeStyle Change Meal Suggestions

Ingredients

• 8 oz shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1/2 cup quinoa
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup bell peppers, sliced (mix of red and green)
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1/2 cup onions, sliced
• 1 cup zucchini, sliced
• 2 tbsp olive oil (EVOO)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 lemon, juiced
• 1/4 cup parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small saucepan, combine quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
3. Add shrimp to the skillet and season with paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until opaque. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Toss in the onions, bell peppers, broccoli, and zucchini. Sauté the vegetables for 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
5. Return the shrimp to the skillet and gently combine it with the vegetables. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the mixture and stir in chopped parsley.
6. To serve, spoon the cooked quinoa onto plates and top with the shrimp and vegetable mix. Enjoy immediately.
