Inflammation Fighting Garlic Shrimp Supper Out
Unfortunately, I didn’t think to take the picture until after I had eaten about half of the food on my plate. What you miss in the pic is A LOT of shrimp and avocado 🥑, but you see most of the rest of the food in the picture. Avocado & garlic are so healthy whether or not you need to cut inflammation! (Keep gum around if garlic breath worries you.) There are also mushrooms still on my plate, and the cook even snuck 2 or 3 pieces of cucumbers on the lettuce because he knows I don’t eat it much.
I guess by the chips and salsa in the background you can tell that I am at a Mexican restaurant. I only eat those sparingly, but they are a nice treat to keep my diet from being bland.
I have only been coming to THIS Mexican restaurant for a little over 20 years now. While I was working on my BA in Spanish at the University of Tennessee, I came here to eat & practice my Spanish! Now 20 years later, I am fluent in Spanish and have a lot of friends here.
Have you ever seen the classic tv show “Cheers”? THIS is my Cheers, where everyone knows your name- waiters, cooks, and other regulars! I’ll post about Taco Tuesday another time!
I wish I had taken a pic of my empty plate before it was taken away!
Garlic is renowned for its health benefits, particularly its anti-inflammatory properties. When combined with shrimp, a source of lean protein, and nutritious avocados, it creates a fulfilling meal that not only delights the taste buds but also boosts overall wellness. This dish is not just about flavor but also about nutrition; avocados are rich in healthy fats and vitamins, while shrimp provides essential minerals like selenium and vitamin B12. Moreover, the addition of mushrooms adds a rich umami flavor and additional nutrients without packing on calories. This combination makes it perfect for anyone looking to maintain a healthy diet while enjoying a delicious supper. Next time you find yourself at a Mexican restaurant, consider ordering a dish featuring garlic shrimp, and don't hesitate to ask for extra avocados! It's a perfect way to indulge in flavors while also prioritizing your health. Sharing dinner ideas with friends or family can turn an ordinary meal into a memorable dining experience. Whether you're looking to impress at home or just enjoy a meal out, garlic shrimp might just become your new favorite dinner choice!
