Eating My Way Through the Holidays! Yuletide Favs: Cocktail Shrimp Minis! Being a “grazer” can reap advantageous health benefits, in my opinion. Not only are the portions much smaller, but you get to eat every few hours which keeps hunger pangs under control. The rule of thumb is to choose foods high in nutrients and low in sugar, salt, and fat. The key to successful grazing is to prepare things ahead of time. That way when you open the refrigerator, you are drawn to easy choices. Sounds pretty simple, doesn’t it?
COCKTAIL SHRIMP MINIS
Ingredients:
1 dozen fresh shrimp, precooked
1 cup fresh salad greens
8 ounces Neufchรขtel cheese, softened
1/2 cup seafood cocktail sauce
1 tablespoon horseradish
Instructions:
Place salad greens in the bottom of a single serving glass. Divide the block of Neufchรขtel cheese into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Place one cheese ball in each glass. Combine seafood cocktail sauce with horseradish. Drizzle sauce evenly over each cheese ball. Skewer one shrimp and insert into each glass, piercing the cheese ball. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Great looking dishes and solid 411, as per usual.
Thanks!
