Shrimp Pad Thai, an effortless yet exquisite meal. It’s a shame that a majority of us go for take-out. Just think about how we could make these noodles right at home in less than 30 minutes.

I know one thing for sure, this meal will be far healthier. You can use whatever ingredients your heart desires within the making. 

Well, I have a variety of comfort foods that I savor, including these palatable noodles.

I absolutely adore the combination of shrimps and noodles; Toss in some extraordinary, mouth-watering Thai sauce, and I will, for sure, dive right into the platter without question.

Furthermore, I have a certain fondness toward food and love it, and I am not reluctant to say so.

We briskly consumed this with pleasure until the whole entire wok was completely devoured.

At that moment, my husband passionately declared that I must make this dish weekly.

Since I am now on the Keto Diet, it is exceedingly difficult for me to prepare my favorite foods for my family. 

Every few hours, I do not fail to smell the pleasant and sweet aroma of pancakes with warm buttery maple syrup drizzled on top or begin to daydream of a delicious sandwich.

One of the most strenuous meals to resist are these appetizing noodles. 

I continue to stick with the diet through all of the strain and struggle because I have a goal and a purpose for why I am doing Keto, and truly wish to complete what I feel is only necessary for the bettering of myself.

Simple, delicious and perfect weeknight meal. I absolutely love meals like this. Not only that it doesn’t take too long to make it, but you have a full meal on the table in less than 45 minutes.

You can also prepare ahead and just put it together. I served this one with roasted potatoes, quinoa, and brown rice, as well as a salad on the side, and I must tell you that it was one delicious meal.

You can totally do this with salmon or any other fish. Actually, I make this often with salmon.

A couple of years ago, my youngest one started calling salmon a pink fish, and often he’d say “how about we get some pink fish for lunch”, he was so cute when he suggested what we should eat.

So, now it is stuck with us… pink fish!
Anyhow, I hope you like this recipe… if you have any suggestions what I should make, do not hesitate to leave a comment.

Happy Cooking! 

Roasted Potatoes – RECIPE 

Quinoa and brown rice infused with garlic and basil. After cooking I just drizzled it with a bit of olive oil instead of using butter and stir before serving.

Instructions

1. MIX together in a jar: lemon juice, Olive oil, minced garlic, onion powder, black pepper and sea salt to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon, you can always add more salt later), dried parsley and chopped fresh parsley (Italian flat leaf). Shake a jar well.
2. Preheat the oven to 400F, and line the baking pan with parchment paper (easier cleanup and fish won’t stick).
3. Pour everything from the jar over fish, you may use frozen fish, but make sure it’s completely defrosted. Add a bit of butter on the top. and cover the baking sheet with aluminum foil just to prevent from burning.
4. Bake for about 25 minutes in the preheated oven.

Recipe Notes

I used 6 fish fillets, and you could use any fish. I use salmon often.
