If you want to put this recipe's carb count back to the usual 10 we allow, use only 1/2 a tomato.
If using frozen shrimp, thaw the shrimp by placing unpackaged shrimp into a colander and immersing in COLD water. While thawing, gently stir on occasion to separate shrimp.
NEVER thaw seafood or meats on the counter!
