    Easy Stir-fried Garlic Ginger Lemon Shrimp Recipe

    Stir-fried Garlic Ginger Lemon Shrimp is one of the better recipes I have found for beginners.  It's simple so it doesn't overwhelm, but it is rewarding in the aromas, sounds, and senses it stimulates.   You can do it on a budget or get really expensive shrimp.  It's good practice for the basics of cutting onions, garlic, and ginger.    Shrimp is arguably not too healthy and the soy sauce has a bit of sodium even though I used a low sodium variety but other than that this recipe is simple and healthy.  The only ingredient that is semi-hard to find is the low sodium or lite soy sauce.

    Finding Healthier Ingredients

    This blog is all about finding recipes that look good to use and doing a little recipe rehab.  I found a low sodium soy sauce on at this link, Wikibuy.com with a $2 discount applied.  It's kind of a cool way to save time comparison shopping because it's already done on the site.  Other than that everything is just whole foods.

    In general, you should consider going for stir-fried recipes when going for Thai.  You reduce total calories and bad calories when you choose it over deep-fried cooking methods.   Eating it with whole grain rice as in the picture is a perfect balance of complex carbs and protein with minimal unhealthy fats.  Enjoy!
