A great trick is to make "pretend pasta" with long strips of zucchini. Use a mandoline grating tool to achieve super long pasta like strips. Then curl them up in a steamer to cook. You can make a really great fat free sauce with chopped tomato, onion,garlic and spices simmered in a little chicken broth. You can even put your ground meat, or cut up pieces of chicken in with the sauce.

Start with 3/4 cup of chicken or vegetable broth. Saute 1/2 of a large onion in the broth until translucent and tender. Add a sliced clove of garlic and an equal amount of ginger. Then add 1/4 cup of lemon juice, a handful of baby bok choy (or spinach) and a handful of chopped cilantro. Add more broth until you have the liquid ratio you like for your soup and bring it all to a boil then add your shrimp.
