Nutritional values
Shrimp comes up favorably with a considerable amount of protein. This macronutrient serves as a building block for all body cells. With their proud content of polyunsaturated fatty acids avocados can be impressive. These have a markedly beneficial effect on cholesterol levels.
If you don't like shrimp, you can substitute chicken breast cubes for the seafood. Vegetarians can use tofu cubes and marinate them the same way as the shrimp.
