When that Chinese food craving kicks in and you are considering placing an order, sometimes a thought or two crosses your mind on: “Is there a healthy option” or “what is the healthiest thing on the menu“. I know that this crosses my mind every time. It tends to cross our minds because we have this craving, yet we still want to or feel an obligation to live that healthy life style and this type of meal can be considered more of an indulgence, comfort food or a cheat day meal.

With all of that being said, good news for you! This Pretty Plate Ginger Lime Shrimp and Mixed vegetables it the perfect recipe for what that craving kicks in. It is healthy containing one main source of protein, an abundance of mixed vegetables and a sauce that is made from coconut aminos, broth containing collagen and fresh lime juice to name a few. With this recipe you will know exactly what is going into it and how it‘s being made.

A Couple of things I love about this dish:

• Not only is this healthy, but it almost if not, does tastes like it came from your favorite Chinese food restaurant down the street. It pairs perfectly with white rice, noodles or is great on its own as is!
• I love a really good chunky vegetable Chinese dish. In addition, I also love this dish because it can easily be made in 30 minutes or less, it comes together quickly and is perfect on those weeknights or weekends when you are busy.
• The last thing I love about this is that it is a versatile dish and you can honestly use whatever vegetables or vegetable scraps you have left over in your fridge. This meal is so flavorful and fresh, it leaves me so satisfied every time I make it.
