Barbeque Shrimp - 17.2g Carbs, 1.9g Fiber, 8.9g Sugar

{Note: Be sure to check the barbeque sauce since they will have
sugar added. You could also make your own or if you can find the brand Walden Farms, they have many good sauces for those who have to watch carbs. Take care, Gloria}

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (26-30 shrimp)
1/2 cup Barbecue Sauce
2 tsp lemon pepper
1 Tbsp parsley flakes

Rinse shrimp and place in a gallon size ziploc bag. Add barbecue sauce and marinate, refrigerated, for one hour.

In a brown paper lunch sack, combine lemon pepper, parsley flakes, paprika, onion powder and chili powder. (Note: Do not use a recycled bag in this recipe).

Remove shrimp from marinade and discard marinade. Grill shrimp over charcoal for 3 minutes. Flip and grill another 1-2 minutes. Remove shrimp from skewers and place the hot shrimp into paper sack and toss to coat for seasoning. Eat like popcorn out of the bag.
