Hi, it’s me again, your resident registered dietitian who is completely OVER cooking right now. Like… cannot stand the thought of it. Anyone else? To avoid yet ANOTHER night of takeout, I threw together this easy and delicious Shrimp Cobb Salad last night. It involved more “throwing things into a bowl” than it did “cooking”, so thankfully I came out alive.
The best part? We fed it to Marek too. Legit fed the whole fam, and the whole fam was happy with it too! Win-win!
I used Gortonsseafood Beer Battered Shrimp as my protein. You guys know how obsessed I am with their Beer Battered Fish Sticks, and the shrimp did not disappoint. The best part (aside from the fact that they’re delicious, high in protein, rich in vitamins and minerals, and Marek loves them) is that they can go straight from the freezer to the oven. I cooked the whole box for this recipe, but I love that I can also just cook a couple a shrimp for baby Marek’s meals/snacks.
