Seafood Tossed Brussels and Kale

Langostino and Greens

Last week I started my Mindful Eating Plan and the first recipe I made was Langostino Tails with Brussels Sprouts and Kale. Langostino is a Spanish word used to describe the meat of a Squat Lobster which is actually more of a crab. Regardless of what it is, it is tasty. You can also use Shrimp, Scallops, Crab or any of your favorite seafood for this recipe. I tossed mine into the mix frozen and it cooked up nicely. You can also thaw a little under warm water before tossing into the mix. The ginger combined with the lemon juice at the end makes this dish light and bright.Note: This recipe is designated "ME" for Mindful Eating and is generally lower in fat and calories than some of my other recipes.
