Ingredients
* 3 medium zucchini, spiralized (For inspiralizer, use blade C, for other vegetable spirlazers use the small blade(I entered this as 2.5 cups cubed for the nutritional info)* 2 slices Wright Smoked Bacon, cooked crisp * 8 oz Shrimp, raw (about 26 medium peeled and deveined frozen Kroger brand is what I used)* 2 fl oz Lemon Juice * 1 clove Garlic, minced * 4 tbsp very finely diced raw onion * 1/8 to 1/4 tsp Pepper, red or cayenne (adjust to your taste)* 12 tsp (1/4 cup) grated parmesan cheese ( I weighed out 6 two tsp servings at 5 gms each, or 60 gms total weight- looked like more than 1/4 cup to me!)
1. Put large skillet over medium heat and add in the bacon. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side or until cooked to your crunchy preference. Remove, draining briefly and put on plate lined w/ paper towel.
2. Leave only 1 Tbs of bacon fat in the skillet and add in the garlic. Cook the garlic for 30 seconds and then add in the red pepper flakes, onions and shrimp. Season with salt and pepper and let shrimp cook for about 2 minutes on medium, flip over, add in the lemon juice and cook two minutes or until done (curled up). Remove the shrimps with a slotted spoon and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add in the zucchini noodles and toss to combine, for about 2 minutes, then add in the Parmesan cheese and mix briefly. Then add in the shrimp and crumble in the bacon. Toss to combine. Divide onto two plates.
