A little while back, I took a weekend trip to the eastern coasts of Florida. We visited beaches, kicked around in the sand, gathered shells, watched the manatees, and ate a lot of seafood. Because that’s what you do when you’re so close to the ocean. It was the freshest shrimp, fish, and clams I’ve ever had. To be honest, they were the only clams I’ve ever had, but they were good!

You don’t need to visit Florida to feel like you’re eating right out of the ocean, however. Many people may not naturally look for quality seafood products in the frozen section of their Walmart store, but it’s the best place to take a little help and add some quick flavor with SeaPak®.

That’s exactly where I picked up the SeaPak® Party Size packages of Butterfly Shrimp and Coconut Shrimp for our Shrimp Lettuce Wraps with Mango Salsa and Avocado Cream Sauce! Be sure to download a coupon for $.75 off any SeaPak product!

Now these Shrimp Lettuce Wraps only use SeaPak Butterfly Shrimp, but I have plans to use the Coconut Shrimp later. Along with our Party Size packages of SeaPak Butterfly Shrimp, I grabbed a mango, a couple avocados, red onion, red bell pepper, a lime, some large romaine lettuce leaves, and some fresh dill for garnish. I had the sour cream and mayonnaise already at home for our Avocado Cream Sauce.

To prepare your Shrimp Lettuce Wraps, first spread the SeaPak Butterfly Shrimp on a baking sheet and slide that into a preheated oven according to package directions. You’ll need about 5 pieces of shrimp for every lettuce wrap.

While the shrimp is baking, mix all your ingredients for the Mango Salsa in one bowl.

In another bowl, combine the ingredients for the Avocado Cream Sauce.

Prepare the lettuce leaves on a plate. And, once the shrimp is out of the oven, cut off the tails and layer the shrimp. Spread some Mango Salsa and top with Avocado Cream Sauce.

You’ll swear you’re eating by the sea! Find more seafood inspiration, and be sure to follow SeaPak on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, and YouTube. All the little fishies are doing it!
