Food of the Day

Hey all! Well, my favorite restaurant is Ruby Tuesdays...and my favorite meal has always been their Low Carb New Orleans...imagine my happiness when I found a recipe for homemade Ruby Tuesday's New Orleans on another message board!! Here it is: Ingredients: 2 1/2 lbs tilapia fillets 1 cup alfredo sauce (I use Carb Options Alfredo in a jar) 3/4 lb shrimp, cleaned,shelled and deveined 2 tablespoons creole seasoning 1 sweet red pepper, sliced very thin into slivers 3 tablespoons olive oil 4 tablespoons butter, divided 2 cloves garlic, finely minced 3 tablespoons grated romano cheese or parmesan cheese, for topping Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 425*. 2. Wash and dry tilapia filets, spread with olive oil and creole seasoning, to your taste. 3. Place in well oiled baking pan, bake for 8-10 minutes, until just white. 4. While fish is baking, saute slivers of red pepper in 1 tbs butter,until cooked, about 5 minutes. 5. Warm alfredo in a small saucepan. 6. In a frypan, melt 3 tbs butter, add minced garlic and cleaned, prepared shrimp, saute for about 5 minutes. 7. When fish is ready, remove from pan from oven. 8. Carefully remove fillets, 4 per plate. 9. Place one quarter of the red pepper slivers and one quarter of the cooked shrimp on top of fillets. 10. Top with 1/4 cup of alfredo, sprinkle of grated cheese and a dusting of more creole seasoning. 11. If you like, you can put this under the broiler for about a minute. Yummmy! I am not sure of that stats on this, but I know that Ruby Tuesday's version is on their low carb menu and it wasn't bad at all (I'm sure if you call or pick up a menu from there, they'll have it). I think I am making this tonight! -Phoenix
