    “HEALTHIFIED” SHRIMP SCAMPI BAKE

    INGREDIENTS:

    • ½ cup butter or macadamia nut oil
    • 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
    • 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
    • 1 tbsp. chopped garlic
    • 2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
    • 1 pound medium raw shrimp (shell on increases flavor)
    • 1 bag kelp noodles

    DIRECTIONS:

    1. Prepare the kelp noodles according to the directions. Set aside in a beautiful serving dish.
    2. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, mustard, lemon juice, garlic, and parsley. When the butter melts completely, remove it from the heat.
    3. Arrange shrimp in a shallow baking dish. Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp. Bake in a preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
    4. Place the baked shrimp and butter sauce over the noodles, peel the shrimp, and enjoy! Serve with “healthified” protein and garlic bread.
