Shrimp Orange Salad

Had the luxury of time while staying with my parents for a couple weeks as I transition to a remote employee as we move from San Diego to Minneapolis. No commute = so much time! I was really craving seafood a couple weeks ago, so I got creative in the kitchen, and this week on the blog will now be dubbed, seafood week! Hope you enjoy as much as we did 🙂

Shrimp Orange Salad

  • Wild caught cooked shrimp – cut (depending on size)
  • 2 diced avocados
  • 2 handfuls cilantro, cut
  • 1/3 cup finely diced shallots
  • Flesh of 2 navel oranges, cut
  • Juice of 1 navel orange
  • Himalayan pink salt/black pepper
  • Drizzle olive oil

Toss everything in a bowl and enjoy! You could make ahead and chill if preferred. I don’t typically measure (I know, sorry!), I just go by taste and quantity, or if I prefer more of something than not. In this case, we had quite a few large shrimp that we’d thawed, so we used it all. I love cilantro and my rule of thumb is to always add more than you’d think you’d want – it never disappoints. The oranges/fresh squeezed juice came from oranges that I’d zested for another recipe, and needed to be used!!

Rosemary Apricot Spaghetti

I am not eating meat. This is a tragedy, but it is wreaking havoc on my digestion right now, so I’m taking a little break to see if things improve (they have, and pretty quick, too). SAD. Also, no avocados or eggs, they’re not digesting either. What am I eating? Plant based foods! How long can this last? Not sure!

Rosemary Apricot Spaghetti

  • Pre-roasted spaghetti squash
  • Fresh rosemary
  • Organic dried apricots
  • Himalayan pink salt
  • Black pepper
  • Grass-fed butter

I reheated the spaghetti squash with grass-fed butter, Himalayan pink salt (trying to change salt quality), black pepper and rosemary. When butter was melted and squash was hot, I added the organic dried apricots, cut in half, and heated a little more so they were soft, but still a little chewy. I don’t typically eat dried fruit, but I had them leftover from a recipe, and they needed to be used. They were organic, and preservative free.DSC_0462
