Shrimp Veggie Skillet Toss

32 medium raw shrimp with tails on (about 8 ounces total), rinsed and patted dry
2 medium zucchinis, cut in half lengthwise and sliced into 6 pieces each
6 green onions, trimmed and halve lengthwise
12 grape tomatoes

Sauce:
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon sesame
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes

In small bowl whisk together sauce ingredients and set aside.
Heat large nonstick skillet coated with nonstick cookie spray over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook 3 minutes or until pink and opaque, stirring frequently. Set aside on separate plate.

Recoat skillet with cooking spray, cook zucchini 4 to 6 minutes or until just tender crisp, add onions and tomatoes and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Add shrimp, cook 1 minute.

Remove from heat, place on serving platter. Add soy sauce mixture to skillet and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and pour evenly over all or serve as dipping sauce.

Note: Shrimp are very low in calories and fat, and high in protein. They're also a good source of vitamin D and vitamin B12
