Housewife on a Diet: HCG P2 Shrimp Scampi

I know...I know....I said I would do a progress post and here I go posting more of the yummie food I am allowed to eat.  Talk about food porn!!!!Can you believe I found a way to enjoy my beloved Shrimp Scampi?

Here's how I did it. Very Simple.  On the HCG Phase 2 Protocol you are not supposed to have certain things...olive oil and other fats help to make up that list.  Coconut oil, on the other hand if you follow a bit rougely, can work for some people.  This would not be considered POP (Perfectly on Protocol) and should be tried with discretion....but if you just need something to really fill you up, this will do it.  Anyway....  I heated some EVCO (extra virgin coconut oil) in a pan, added some minced garlic and sauted the shrimp.  The minced garlic gave the dish a "breaded" feel, kinda like they do at Campesi's Egyptian Room here in Dallas (my ATF place to get REAL shrimp scampi).  I then placed 2 melba toasts in the bottom of the dish, loaded them up with the Shrimp Scampi and OMG was it good!!!!

I have also eaten with out the melba (if you are going that route on the HCG Protocol) and wrapped it in lettuce leafs.  That was also very tasty.

Happy Homemaking,
