Another phenom.com Skinny Taste recipe! I used to make her other cilantro lime shrimp recipe in the pan, but busting out the George Foreman for this is completely worth it.  The skewers make it a really easy meal prep option, since I can eat it while I’m at work without having to cut it up (I don’t get lunch breaks :'(  

 

I really didn’t follow the portions in this recipe since it was just me and my meal prep!  I cut it down to 1lb of shrimp, a little less cilantro/cumin/salt and I had to cut out the limes from the skewers because I got a funk-a-licious lime that I couldn’t use.  Oh well, this makes it easier to eat!  I used as much garlic as the original recipe called for, I love garlic.  It took about 2 mins each side on the George Foreman and I had to wiggle them around a bit to cook 3 skewers at a time evenly.

 

Here’s the original from Skinny Taste:
