Simple shrimps over Brown rice!

I have been a lil laid back for the past one month when its come to food, however I have been lucky enough to still not gain the pounds.Starting this week I have reverted back to eating healthy again, In fact I have been supplementing my ideas in the kitchen with my mom. Of course I am learning so many more healthier tricks which I was so new to. Thanks Mom.

I made this simple shrimp over brown rice and I was so happy it was relished by my family. My mom who is very particular about her food habits took an extra serving.
