Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • Shrimp and salad
  • 0.5-1 tbsp Thrive™ Algae Oil per 4 ounces of shrimp
  • 4-8 ounces of shrimp I like to eat 4 ounces all to myself, but maybe you would prefer less
  • 4 cups of spinach
  • 1-2 cups salad leaves
  • 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
  • 1-2 tsp garlic I use garlic paste
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Dressing
  • 2 tbsp Thrive™ Algae Oil
  • 1 cup chopped strawberries
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh mint
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Firstly, prepare the dressing. Simply whizz all of the ingredients up in a food processor or blender. Should take anywhere from 1-2 minutes--stop when it looks creamy and smooth. Set aside for now.
  • Heat up a pan on medium-high heat. Toast your pumpkin seeds for 1-2 minutes and then set aside.
  • Now, you make the shrimp! Heat the algae oil on a pan at medium-high heat for a minute or so. Then add your garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Now, add your shrimp and cook each side for 2-4 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and pepper for taste. Once the shrimp is done, set aside.
  • This is the last and most fun step! Get some bowls and put your spinach and salad leaves in them. Toss with the delicious strawberry mint dressing. Then add your toasted pumpkin seeds and shrimp.
  • Eat and enjoy!

Notes

You may replace maple syrup with honey.
You can use more or less spinach and salad, according to your needs.
