Cajun Shrimp and Grits
This cajun shrimp and grits was adapted from a WW recipe online. I added cheese to the grits, and I cooked the shrimp separately to get a nice char on the shrimp. So delicious!
Ingredients
- For the grits:
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup quick-cooking grits
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon cheddar cheese
- For the shrimp dish:
- 1 slice cooked bacon, chopped
- 1/2 cup diced red pepper
- 1/2 cup diced zucchini
- 5 ounces shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- chopped parsley
Instructions
- Put the broth, grits, salt and pepper in a 4-cup measuring cup. Mix and microwave. Remove and add milk and cheddar cheese and
stir until combined. Cover with a cloth to keep warm. - In a skillet, heat over medium heat with avocado oil spray. Cook peppers and zucchini for 5 minutes. Remove from the
skillet. Add sliced garlic and cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until browned on both sides. It will crisp as it cools. In the same
skillet, cook shrimp 2-3 minutes a side, until opaque and cooked through. - Plate! Put the grits on the bottom, top with the veggies, shrimp and crumbled bacon and chopped parsley. This was delicious! The shrimp was just spicy enough, and the grits were so creamy with the added milk and cheese.

![The Best Orange Tofu](https://mybizzykitchen.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/best-orange-tofu-mbk-720x720.jpeg)
The Best Orange Tofu
If you love orange chicken, you will love this orange tofu. Even if you don't like tofu, promise you will love this recipe!
Ingredients
For the orange sauce:
- 1/3 cup orange juice (juice from one orange)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon sambal oelek
- 1 teaspoon hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 1 tablespoon water (if needed)
For the tofu:
- 6 ounces of pressed, extra firm tofu, cut into cubes
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cracked pepper
- avocado oil spray
Instructions
UPDATE! The next time I made this tofu, I put all the sauce ingredients into a one cup glass measuring cup and microwaved it for one and a half minutes. Then poured that over the cooked tofu - time saver!
Mix the orange sauce ingredients together. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the sauce in the pan and stir, two minutes, until thickened. If too thick, add the tablespoon of water to thin it out a bit.
Slice the pressed tofu in half, then into cubes. In a bowl mix the cornstarch, salt and pepper, and toss the tofu to coat on all sides.
Heat a skillet with the avocado oil spray. In two batches, pan fry the tofu for about 5 minutes for each batch or until crispy on all sides.
Toss in the prepared orange sauce, and garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions. Serve with fresh veggies (I did steamed green beans) and rice if you want make a complete meal.

![this is a plate of jalapeno popper burger](https://mybizzykitchen.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/jalapeno-popper-burger-480x480.jpeg)
Jalapeno Popper Burger
Who doesn't love a jalapeno popper?! This is my burger version, sans the bun so I can have more potatoes.
Ingredients
- 3 ounces 97% lean beef
- 1 teaspoon steakhouse seasoning (I used Dak's)
- 1/2 cup baby spinach
- 1 small jalapeno, sliced (remove seeds for less heat)
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 teaspoon seltzer
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 5 ounces new potatoes, sliced thin
- avocado oil spray
- 2 tablespoons Alouette smoky jalapeno cheese
- 1 teaspoon buttermilk
Instructions
Heat air fryer at 400 for 2 minutes. Spray sliced potatoes with avocado spray, salt and pepper. Add to air fryer and reduce heat to 360 - bake for 5 minutes, toss, then cook at 400 for 5 minutes. The thinner ones will be crispy like potato chips - the thicker ones will be crisp on the edges and creamy in the middle.
Heat skillet to medium heat. Season beef with steakhouse seasoning, spray pan with avocado spray and cook about 2 minutes a side for medium rare.
Mix the flour, garlic salt and seltzer together. Mixed the sliced jalapeños in the batter, letting the excess batter drip off for a crispier jalapeño- once the burger is cooked remove to a plate, and spray the pan with avocado spray and cook the jalapeños about 2 minutes over medium high heat or until the brown and get crispy.
By now your potatoes should be done. While you start to plate, mixed the @alouettecheese with the buttermilk and microwave for 30 seconds.
To Plate:
Tiny dish with ketchup and mustard with pickles on the side.
Baby spinach on the bottom, burger on top, drizzle the jalapeno sauce over the burger and add the crispy jalapenos. Serve with potatoes on the side.
