Keto Romesco Shrimp
Romesco sauce is the ultimate condiment. It can be used as a dipping sauce, salad dressing, and more. For a low carb snack, enjoy simply baked shrimp dipped in romesco sauce. This recipe calls for walnuts, but you can also use almonds! If you are nearing the end of your carb allotment for the day, you can decrease (or even eliminate) the tomato paste that’s used. The paste adds a nice sweetness to round out the flavors, but it also works without. To make this more of a meal, serve the shrimp over a salad or vegetables!

Prawns are really nice. I'm not too keen on raw garlic so I might try again without the garlic. But overall it was really nice. Nice texture to the dip. I had it with a cup of spinach
