Hi, just wanted to know how I find out if I goofed when I made up a batch of curried shrimp tonight. I guess I should really get the book and I wont have to bothery anyone with these questions, but havent had time to do it yet. Anyway, I fried up some green and red peppers, mushrooms and green onions. Then I added a whole frozen shrimp ring (tails off of course) and dumped a bunch of curry powder in there. I cooked it until everything was soft and then added a little over a quarter cup of cream. I simmered it till it was like a thick sauce.

It was delicious but I am afraid I did something wrong because it tasted too good to be legal. Can you help me?? Did I overdose on the veggies ..(I only ate half of the mixture and saved the rest for tomorrow).. Are we allowed curry powder?? Oh geeeeze I never even thought of that.

Have to get me a book.

Hope someone can answer my questions.

Hi Judy,

It all depends on the amounts used in the recipe. It may not be that bad. To have a piece of mind and be exact on how much carbs are included, all you need to do is use our very own carb counter

You will be able to find the exact carb count for each of the ingredients you used, including the curry.

I love curry!

Hi Judy,

Lots of LC food is sinfully delicious. As Wa'il said, just make sure you're measuring accurately and counting the carbs. After a while, you'll be an old pro at it and will be able to do it in your sleep!
