Main Course -- Shrimp Scampi

One third cup olive oil
4 cloves minced garlic
Two thirds cup butter
2 pounds peeled and deveined large shrimp
One half tsp. crushed red pepper
One third cup dry white wine
Fresh parsley for garnish
1 pound cooked angel hair pasta
One quarter cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese

Saute garlic in olive oil. Add butter and stir until melted. Add shrimp and cook until they start to turn pink. Add red pepper and wine and simmer for a couple of minutes. Serve over hot angel hair pasta and sprinkle with parsley and Parmesan cheese

The Skinny: If you cannot tolerate white wine use apple cider instead.

Sweet Onion Pie

1 frozen deep dish pie shell, thawed
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
1 cup whipping cream
3 large eggs
1 Tbsp. fresh thyme, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Pinch of ground nutmeg

Heat oil in a large skillet and saute onions and mushrooms until tender. Meanwhile stir together whipping cream, eggs, fresh thyme, salt and pepper and nutmeg. Pour onion mixture into egg mixture and stir well. Pour mixture into deep dish pie shell and bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.

The Skinny: Use unsweetened evaporated milk or fat free Half and Half in place of the cream and your favorite egg substitute.
