A note on this recipe

Shrimp is a lean protein, so this stays low in fat. See GLP-1 nausea and vomiting and what to eat on a GLP-1.

This is a recipe, not a treatment, and it won't suit everyone. If you have kidney disease, diabetes, a food allergy or a special diet, ask your prescriber or a dietitian.
