Although I changed this recipe a bit from the original printed in Weight Watchers Mix It and Match It - I don't think the points have changed. Points are about 7 per serving.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some cooked shrimp in my fridge and this was the perfect way to use it up.

The sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding a little bit of cream.
