This shrimp stir fry is an easy way to incorporate lean protein source in your diet without adding fats. It does add healthy fats, though. Omega-3 present in shrimps keeps our arteries clean of plaque. Shrimps are so full of protein that they can cover most of our protein requirement. I like to have this stir fry for lunch as it does not leave me fall filled. The brown rice rich in fiber is also full of nutrients as it is not milled. This is a great lunch time meal!
