Ginger Prawns with Zucchini Noodles & Plum Tomatoes

A vibrant, flavour-packed meal that keeps blood sugar steady and taste buds happy. Ideal for semaglutide users or anyone craving a nutrient-rich, light yet satisfying dish.

Ingredients:

• 10-15 prawns (approx. 150–200g)

• fresh ginger (approx 25g)

• 1 medium zucchini (spiralized)

• 10 cherry or plum tomatoes

• 1 small garlic clove

• 1 small shallot (or red onion), finely chopped

• 1 tsp avocado oil

• Salt, pepper, and optional chili flakes to taste

Instructions:

1. Sauté aromatics: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick pan. Add garlic and ginger, cooking gently for 1 minute.

2. Cook prawns: Add prawns to the pan. Season with salt, pepper, and chilli flakes. Sauté until pink and slightly crispy (about 3–4 minutes). Remove and set aside.

3. Warm the veg: In the same pan, add chopped tomatoes and spiralized zucchini. Cook on medium heat for 2–3 minutes until just softened.

4. Combine & finish: Return the prawns to the pan, drizzle with sesame oil, toss in fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Wellness Tip:

Front-load your protein! Starting your day with protein-rich meals (like this one at lunch) helps balance blood sugar, reduce cravings, and protect lean muscle, especially valuable during semaglutide-assisted weight loss. Plus, protein supports that “full and satisfied” feeling longer, helping you avoid unnecessary snacking.
