All Natural Muscle: Seriously Healthy Shrimp Enchiladas

Seriously Healthy Shrimp Enchiladas

As some of you might know, I am currently doing a brief fat cutting period. And that means going through a caloric deficit period. However, just because I am consuming fewer calories, that doesn't mean I can't still eat the foods I love. And I love enchiladas! And what's more is that you will love these enchiladas for being low in carbs and fat but packed with protein and flavor!

Originally, I was thinking of doing a green enchilada crock pot recipe. But then I realized that enchiladas shouldn't take all day to cook, so I decided to go with a baked enchilada. I picked shrimp because my girlfriend only eats seafood meats. But that's completely fine with me since I love seafood.

My girlfriend is also on a diet right now. So, we both want something that's not too calorie dense. This recipe fit the bill perfectly! And the taste? Oh yea! What did you expect? These are enchiladas we are talking about!

Whether you are prepping for a contest, watching your weight or just in the mood for a guiltless pleasure. These enchiladas are a great meal!
