Things have gotten a little out of hand in our house over this salsa.We’re so obsessed with this and have probably made shrimp salsa a hundred times (I kid you not). Over time, we’ve been tweaking our original shrimp salsa to incorporate more veggies. The avocados take this shrimp avocado salsa way over the top! Between the Mr and I, we scarf down a 6-8 serving-sized bowl. Yeah…

You know the crazy cool part? There is no added salt in this recipe which means your tomatoes and cucumbers wont get squishy. There is also no oil or added fat, making this a skinny shrimp salsa. It’s zesty and delicous and you won’t miss the salt one bit! Serve it with hot sauce if you like a good kick to your salsa (we sure do!).

We’re participating in the OXO and NFI Shrimp Council’s shrimp showdown! Eastern Seafood Company sent us 5 lbs of Large shrimp and OXO provided all the fantastic tools for preparing them. We put both to good use! 🙂

It is important to check the source of your shrimp! The Eastern Fish Companysent us shrimp that is chemical-free and wild caught from the waters of Mexico! They source their shrimp in an environmentally friendly, sustainable way. Huge thank you for the gorgeous shrimp!
