Dinner with some kick

Tonight I had this wonderful dinner. It was very filling and the spices were out of this world. I tend to like things hot so when the recipie called for cajun seasoning (I use Tony's Chatcheret) I always put more then it says.

Even if you don't live near the gulf coast, you can eat like you do with this sandwich recipe that gets a healthy makeover by sauteing, not frying, the shrimp.




Ingredients

2 Tbsp reduced-calorie mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp Creole seasoning, divided
4 item(s) French roll(s)
1 serving(s) butter-flavor cooking spray
1 1/4 pound(s) shrimp, large (peeled and deveined)
1 tsp olive oil
1 cup(s) onion(s), yellow, sliced
1 cup(s) lettuce, shredded
4 slice(s) tomato(es), 1/4-inch-thick

Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F.


Combine mayonnaise and 1⁄2 teaspoon Creole seasoning in a small bowl; cover and chill.


Split rolls lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, other side. Place on a baking sheet; coat insides of rolls with cooking spray. Bake at 375°F for 4 minutes or until lightly toasted. Set aside.


Sprinkle 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning over shrimp; set aside.


Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; sauté 4 minutes. Add shrimp; sauté 4 minutes or until shrimp are done.


Spread mayonnaise mixture evenly over cut sides of rolls; top each evenly with lettuce and tomato. Spoon shrimp mixture over tomato. Serve immediately. Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 sandwich).

This was really good.

Since we have finished our pushups and are working on week 5 day 2 we have decided to alternate the days that we don't have to do the situps and have decided to do pushups in it's place. I want to keep myself ready for when we come back from Paris. Which we will be leaving in less then 2 weeks and I can't wait. I am looking forward to seeing just how much walking I will do on that because I will be burning calories.

P90X will be in store for when we come back. I have been asked to do before pics but I really can't muster up the courage to do it.
