I am a huge fan of seafood. Being land locked, I don’t have access to the fresh seafood that many of you guys in the coastal areas have so I take advantage of the sales as often as I can. You just can’t beat the taste and ease of preparation. When you pair seafood with the fresh taste of Florida citrus you have a can’t miss recipe. What’s even better is a recipe that doesn’t require any cooking. Yep…I am talking about a ceviche!
Today I thought I would share a fantastic recipe that is super simple to prepare – Florida Citrus Rock Shrimp Ceviche.
With the coupons and sales available at Publix you can put this one together at a great price. Since the citrus juice cures the shrimp you won’t be in the kitchen all day. With a little prep, you’ll have a fantastic dish waiting for you when you when you need it!
We have a great BOGO sale on shrimp in the upcoming Publix ad and that awesome Publix Digital coupon that will save you $1 on your purchase of Florida Orange Juice and a bag of Florida Grapefruit is still available to load!
Remember every glass of Florida Orange Juice has the Amazing 5: taste, vitamin C, potassium, folate and no added sugar. One 8-ounce glass of Florida Orange Juice is a quick and easy way to get a serving of fruit and nutrients when on the go. No struggling to get your nutrition…that one glass provides a substantial number of nutrients per calorie, including vitamin C, potassium and folate!
Plus Florida Grapefruit is one of the most nutrient dense fruits per calorie. It’s high in vitamin C and vitamin A, while also delivering folate, potassium, and calcium. Florida Grapefruit is free from fat, cholesterol and sodium – making it a great addition to any diet or weight loss plan.
This recipe is packed with great flavor and takes no time to put together. You just park it in your fridge and let it sit for a while then a few hours later you have a fantastic meal that’s packed with so much flavor. Plus it’s easy on the waistline too!
