Tropical Curry Coconut Shrimp (Diabetic)

"Curry, chili powder, ginger, coconut milk and scallion make this tempting. From Mr. Food's Diabetic Dinners in a Dash. I found this in a summer edition, 2006 of Voice which is a newsletter for Diabetics. The photo looks great. This recipe says a serving is 4 shrimp but I like a larger portion!"

  1. This was pretty good. Hubby thought it was ok (he's not big on shrimp), but I think we're going to try it again with chicken. We added some sriracha, which made it spicy, and we served it over brown rice! Thanks for sharing. :)

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I've collected recipes since I was a teen. After all these years I'm trying to get all my index cards and clippings, that still sound interesting to me, posted here so that I can find them and eventually make them! <br /> <br />I've posted some of my Mom's recipes. I regret not having paid more attention to my Grandmothers' cooking. They made some dishes that I miss and there were/are no recipes for them. <br /> <br />I have a wonderful DH and 2 wonderful sons. They are thrilled that I found this site since they directly benefit from it! Before finding 'Zaar, I was less of a cook and more of a recipe collector but now I try many more things and we're having more fun in the kitchen (at least I am)! <br /> <br />Thanks for all your ratings, comments and help in the forums AND for posting so many great recipes. You've enhanced my cooking skills and expanded my horizons! I've learned so much. <br /> <br />For fun, I also like to read fiction, travel, see movies and shows, shop (and I love to browse thrift shops and rummage/garage sales for cookbooks, etc.). <br /> <br />The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star Brillat-Savarin</p>
