Weigh Low: Lobster and Shrimp Ceviche Wontons with Low Cal Guacamole


As if you weren't already preparing your salsa-dancing sombrero-wearing ensemble, tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo!

I was all set this week to create a recipe for healthy Asian shrimp and lobster spring rolls when I realized what time of year it was.

So, decided to adapt the ethnicity of my dish. And I am so glad I did. These babies are bomb.

Without further a do, I present you:

Shrimp and Lobster Ceviche Wontons (that's more like it)


Ingredients


-1/2 C. Salad Shrimp (80)
-1/2 C. or 1/2 package Lobster meat (100)
-1/2 C. diced Tomato
-1/4 C. diced Onion
-1 Tbs. chopped Cilantro (or if you forget it at the store like me, parsley)
-1 Tsp. Extra Virgin Olive oil (40)
-Juice of half a Lime
-12 Wonton Wrappers (17 cals each)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with Pam.


2. Dice onions and tomato and marinate in a bowl with the lime juice.


3. Add lobster, shrimp, olive oil, and cilantro to the veggies.


4. Put a dollop of the mixture in the middle of the wonton wrapper. Wet the edges of the wrapper slightly using your fingers. Fold into a triangle.


5. Place wontons on the baking sheet and spray with Pam. Cook for 12 minutes in the oven, flipping half way through and re-spraying with Pam.
