HONEY LIME CAJUN SHRIMP STIR FRY

Honey Lime Cajun Shrimp Stir Fry image

This is a recipe I developed myself. The first stir fry that 2 out of 3 of my kids will eat! I took the basic marinade from Recipe #231870 and made up my own stir fry. The vegetables are what I had on hand, so feel free to adjust the veggies to what you like to use. Time includes only 1 hour of marinading.

CAJUN SHRIMP STIR FRY

Cajun Shrimp Stir Fry image

I got this out of a magazine called "Clean Eating" This is low in fat and sugar. Both DH and I found it to be outstanding. It may say fry but there is nothing fatty about it. It would also be great on the Weight Watchers program.
