Skinny Recipes

Ever since I stumbled upon Gina's Skinny Recipes I've been a huge fan.

Gina updates her site regularly, with easy to follow instructions, personally taken pictures, and nutritional information on every meal.

Can you beat that?

Before I went to the grocery store last night, I browsed some of her recent posts for dinner inspiration. A perfect summer salad was just what I was craving, so I was beyond delighted to see a Mexican Shrimp Cobb Salad featured.
Along with being an amazing cook, her photography skills are beyond fab too
 I made a few substitutions to Gina's recipe; I chose green pepper for cucumber and white onion for red. 

And I made my own creamy cilantro dressing (ranch, tomtilla salsa, mayo, cream cheese, lime, red pepper and salt).


Overall, this salad was beyond amazing. It makes 6 servings so Joel and I had plenty for dinner and were able to bring a heaping portion for lunch too.  
 

Most of the ingredients you probably have at home already, so if you do, take my advice and cook this up stat.
