Ww Hunan Shrimp - 5 Points image

This is out of one of my Weight Watchers cookbooks called "Take-Out Tonight!" Both DH and I really liked this dish. You can use 1/2 shrimp and 1/2 sea scallops if you prefer. You can also replace the asparagus with broccoli florets or fresh snow peas.

I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I substituted them with snow peas. The dish turned out great!

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend using less cornstarch next time.
