Grilled shrimp with polenta and asparagus

See all those shrimp? They only total up to about 150 calories. We put them on two skewers so they wouldn’t twirl around when grilled. The polenta is from Bob’s Red Mill. It is good quality and very tasty with a few herbs and a little butter.  Our ratio is 5 to 1 for creamy polenta. While John grilled the shrimp my job was to stir the polenta and steam the asparagus. Asparagus is on sale this week for $2.99 a pound. I used to only buy it when it was $1.99/lb. but I am afraid those days are not coming back.

This is a delicious and filling dinner in the 300-350 calorie range.
