So I went shopping today and found out shrimp is zero points and I’m thinking I’m just going to have to get used to the texture! Anyone recipe ideas? On a side note, the scanning really helped in making my purchases today!

If you don't like shrimp, then don't eat it. I never understood the idea behind people forcing themselves to like the flavor or texture of anything. lol maybe I'm just too picky.

@shuler222 I can see both sides. My tastes have completely changed since starting ww but I required an open mind and trying new things. If you're able to get enough nutrients and stay in your points by not trying new things, great! I think part of life is evolving and changing but we often get stuck by thinking that what we used to not like we still dont like. I feel much less limited when other people are cooking or at a restaurant now that I have expanded the foods I eat.

The WW app has a coconut shrimp and sauce recipe. Coconut shrimp are crunchy like fried shrimp and may not cause you the texture problem

Shrimp is zero but watch out what you do with them. I like the blackened idea but make sure you count the spice mix. The app is wonderful when shopping.

Shrimp makes a great taco or wrap. And I can't seem to find the recipe I used before. I think WW has a good one.

Stir fry shrimp with vegs over 1/2 cup rice - shrimp and vegs are 0, 1/2c rice are your only points.
