Peach Pie Overnight Oats



This is a healthy filling breakfast to start your day off right!  Letting this set overnight really thickens up the oats and makes it very filling.  I used fresh peaches and that made this taste amazing!  I mixed some peeled and diced peaches into the mixture and added some extra to the top.  Super yummy!  I recently bought some chia seeds and started using them the first time.  Chia seed are loaded with fiber and protein making them a great addition to this healthy breakfast.  Hope you enjoy!

Grilled Garlic and Herb Shrimp

This grilled shrimp has a wonderful smokey flavor.  The marinade is quick and simple to put together.  It just needs a couple hours to marinate with the shrimp to bring out the wonderful flavors. Shrimp serves as an excellent source of lean protein. Each 6-ounce portion provides 39 grams of protein -- a significant amount toward the 46 grams recommended daily for women and 56 grams for men.  Loaded with protein, vitamin D, vitamin B3, and zinc, shrimp are an excellent, carbohydrate-free food.  Shrimp also contains 165.8mg of cholesterol per serving, over half the recommended limit of 300mg per day.  However, shrimp also contains omega-3, a fatty acid that could help prevent or reduce your risks for heart disease and other health conditions, such as diabetes. Whisk together the olive oil, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, basil, pepper in a bowl.  Mix together with the shrimp and cover and refrigerate or place in a ziploc baggie.  Refrigerate for a couple hours.
