Making Everyday Meals A Special Occasion
(NAPSA) - There's good news for shrimp lovers. Once reserved by many for special occasions, this tasty source of protein is becoming increasingly convenient and available.
For many, meatless meals used to mean a menu built around fish-no more. Last year, during the biggest seafood-selling season of the year, shrimp reigned as the No. 1-selling item in that category in America.
To help make mealtimes really special occasions, SeaPak has developed several signature recipes, one of which is described below. Some are the handiwork of the company's own registered dietitian and Food Network celebrity Robin Miller.
For those who also enjoy great-tasting, restaurant-quality seafood dishes of all kinds, the same company has also launched a line-up of all-natural fish fillets and Maryland-style crab cakes.
Consumers who want to enjoy shrimp all year long can find more great-tasting recipes and meal solutions at www.SeaPak.com.
