My son loves shrimp. We eat it almost once a week. His favorite is this scampi recipe or just topped with pesto. Sometimes it's expensive at the grocery store, but I've found it frozen at Trader Joe's and it's affordable.
I serve it over brown rice, quinoa, or if I've had my carbs (Fixers: yellow containers for the day), I serve it over zoodles or roasted spaghetti squash.
