Roasted Pepper Shrimp Stir Fry!

Servings: 2 Difficulty: Beginner

If you are looking for a quick, easy, healthy, high protein meal, this one is for you! This dish comes together with the most basic ingredients, but when you eat it you’ll know that there is nothing basic about it!

The thing that really takes this simple dish to the next level is the technique. You want peppers that are tender, roasted and sweet – don’t rush them and add the shrimp too early.

The simple combo of oyster sauce and umami sauce dresses this up perfectly. If you don’t have umami sauce, a little light soy sauce would work too!

FitOver50Foodie I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals!
When I hit my 50s and went into menopause, it felt like my body had been taken over by an alien! Despite cooking at home and eating whole, clean foods, I started gaining weight, felt exhausted all the time, and—let’s be honest—I was mad at everyone!

I found myself visiting doctors often, desperate to feel healthy again.

Everything changed when I discovered the power of prioritizing protein at every meal and lifting heavy weights to build muscle! I finally feel like myself again!

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals that work if you are in a calorie deficit, looking for protein, trying to build and retain muscle or just want some inspiration in the kitchen for what to cook and eat!

I can’t wait for you to join me in my kitchen!
