I switched up one of my favorite recipes tonight to include shrimp instead of tofu:
I also omitted the enormous handful of breadcrumbs that I usually throw on top. Because I didn’t have to coat the tofu in them, I couldn’t justify it. I did miss them, though. A lot.
Other than that, I used:
1 bag baby spinach
8 ounces of shrimp
2 scallions
1 T olive oil
4 ounces soba noodles
6 or 7 chopped up almonds
A ton of garlic powder
Cook the shrimp, cook the noodles, cook the spinach, then mix it all together with the olive oil, garlic powder, scallions and almonds. Done.
This afternoon I had popcorn and chocolate chips as a snack again. This is one of those things that I can just tell I am going to eat over and over again. In fact, it might replace Z Bars if I don’t need something portable. We’ll see. It kind of tastes the same.


that looks divine! and the picture was beautiful.
replace z-bars! oh my goodness, I don’t know who I am anymore. haha
that dinner looks easy and delicious! have a great night!
I made the original recipe for the first time tonight! I think I like this shrimp idea better – I am just not skilled when it comes to evenly dredging, it would seem. Plus, this looks awesome.
Mmmm, spinach.
Definitely go for the popcorn & chocolate chips snack again!
Have you ever bread crumbed tofu?
I just wanted to say that I love the switch up in the blog. (Posting dinner)
That does look yummy. I really like the post title. It’s funny!
