Healthy Lettuce Shrimp Wraps Meal Prep and Storage
Meal Prep: You can meal prep this healthy recipe easily. Make the shrimp ahead of time and clean and separate the lettuce leaves. Storage: Will hold for 5 days in the fridge.
These low calorie shrimp wraps are just 126 calories each, and they come with a homemade taco seasoning.
You can use store-bought taco seasoning as well, but if you want to lower the sodium you may want to make your own and omit the salt, or cut the amount by 1/2.
Special Tip: You can douse these with more lime juice, or salsa. They are great with a bit of heat.
In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with the taco seasoning and lime zest until evenly coated.
Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil and add in the shrimp.
Cook the shrimp for 3-4 minutes, flipping once, until they are opaque and cooked through. Squeeze over the lime juice, toss well and then remove from heat.
Remove the leaves from the romaine or butter lettuce, and rinse well.
Lay the 10 largest lettuce leaves out on a plate or platter.
Fill each lettuce cup with tomatoes, avocado, and a few shrimp.
