Hungry Girl Today: 7.24.09



Tequila is not just for margaritas, people. Check out these DELICIOUS, guilt-

free recipes!





Te Quiero Tequila Shrimp



PER SERVING (half of recipe, about 1 1/2 cups): 206 calories, 2.25g fat,

470mg sodium, 9.5g carbs, 1.75g fiber, 4g sugars, 24g protein -- POINTS®

value 4*



This recipe is fast and FANTASTIC. Quite possibly our best shrimp recipe to

date. (And by that we mean it's our favorite so far. We don't want to buy it

daisies and take it to a movie.)



Ingredients:

8 oz. raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, tails removed

2 Roma tomatoes, chopped

1 small onion, sliced

3 tbsp. (1 shot) tequila

2 tbsp. lime juice

2 tbsp. coarsely chopped fresh cilantro

1 tsp. minced garlic

1/4 tsp. chili powder

1/4 tsp. salt



Directions:

Bring a large pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Add onion

and garlic, and cook until onion is slightly translucent, about 3 minutes. Add

tequila to the pan and stir. Cover the pan and let simmer for 5 minutes.



Add shrimp and cook for about 3 minutes, until shrimp are nearly opaque.

Add tomatoes, lime juice, cilantro, chili powder, and salt, and mix well.

Stirring occasionally, cook until tomatoes have softened and shrimp are

cooked through, about 2 minutes. Enjoy!

HG Alternative! The cilantro works reeeeally well here (believe it!), but if that

herb's a nonnegotiable for you, just skip it or swap it out for chopped

scallions.







Strawberry Margarita Mousse



PER SERVING (1/5th of recipe, about 1 cup): 107 calories, 0g fat, 107mg

sodium, 13g carbs, 1g fiber, 6g sugars, 2g protein -- POINTS® value 2*



This wiggly, jiggly, creamy dessert is like a fruity fiesta in your face. And

even if you ate half of the bowl of mousse (a HUGE portion!), you'd still take

in fewer calories than if you ordered ONE frozen strawberry margarita at a

bar. Sweet!



Ingredients:

1 large (8-serving) package JELL-O Sugar Free Strawberry Gelatin Dessert

Mix

2 cups frozen unsweetened strawberries, mostly thawed

1 1/2 cups Cool Whip Free, thawed

1 cup cold Sprite Zero (or any diet lemon-lime soda)

2 1/2 oz. (1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp.) tequila

3 tbsp. lime juice



Directions:

In a medium-large bowl, combine gelatin mix with 1 cup boiling water, and

stir until completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Set aside.



In a blender, combine strawberries, soda, tequila, and lime juice. Puree until

smooth. Add this mixture to the bowl and stir thoroughly. Refrigerate for 45

minutes, until slightly thickened but not set. (Do not over-refrigerate.)



Using an electric mixer, blend in the Cool Whip. Once mixture appears

mostly blended, use a spoon to mix it up from the bottom. If needed,

continuing blending until uniform. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, until

mostly firm. Enjoy!
