BAKED COCONUT SHRIMP WITH PINEAPPLE SAUCE
I love the big succulent coconut shrimp found at a popular restaurant. Unfortunately, due to health reasons I can't indulge in that shrimp anymore. I created a recipe that satisfies my craving and tastes just as indulgent, but without the guilt! Can be served as an entree or as an appetizer.

OVEN-BAKED COCONUT SHRIMP (LOW-FAT)
There is almost no fat in this recipe, please make certain to generously grease your baking pan, I use the non-stick foil for this --- This complete recipe can be doubled to about 52-53 shrimp, enough to feed a crowd! If your coconut flakes are very large, then just chop them slightly, they will stick to the egg whites better. Cooking time is estimated depending on size of your shrimp --- serve the shrimp with pineapple or a fruit salsa --- your going to love this shrimp! ;-)
