Shrimp and Avocado Salad – Incredibly Nutrient Dense
This easy shrimp and avocado salad make a fun presentation on top of the avocado halves, or you can just slice up the avocado and add it to the shrimp and serve on lettuce. Avocados are incredibly nutrient-dense with over 20 vitamins in minerals packed inside that lovely green skin.
