Thai Noodle Shrimp Salad - points???
I need your help in figuring points for this recipe ...it sounds too good to pass up! I roughly tried to figure it out, just using my blonde brain, WW points finder and a calculator, and came up with 8 points per serving (without using the peanuts for garnish) ...can anyone please tell me how close I am? Here's the recipe:
Thai Noodle Shrimp Salad
Serves 6
1 lb package of Trader Joes Imported Fettuccine
(8 servings per package ...1 serving = 210 cal., 1 g. fat, 2 g. fiber
3/4 cup Trader Joes Hoisin Sauce (1 Tbsp. = 40 cal., 0 fat, 0 fiber)
1/2 cup Trader Joes Peanut Sauce (2 Tbsp = 70 cal, 3 g. fat, 1 g. fiber)
1 lb Trader Joes Pre-cooked Large Shrimp (50-70 to a lb) thawed and rinsed
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts
2 fresh limes cut into wedges
Cook fettuccine according to directions on package
Immediately drain and put in ice water bath to chill
Drain well
Blend together the Hoisin and Peanut sauces
Toss together the green onions, cilantro and shrimp
Add Hoisin peanut dressing and blend
Add to the cooled and drained pasta
Toss well
Chill for 30 minutes
Pass lime wedges and chopped peanuts with salad
Doesn't it sound yummy?
Thanks to anyone and everyone that figures this out!
Hugs, Chris
