Hi friends!
Let’s talk dinner today, shall we? Specifically healthy dinners that can be made quickly to avoid dinnertime meltdowns! Because I’m in desperate need of those at my house.
As you may recall, I’ve been working with my friends at the National Fisheries Institute for the past couple of years to share some easy seafood recipes like this Grilled Foil Packet Tilapia with Pesto Veggies, this Sheet Pan Italian Salmon with Green Beans and these Easy Tuna Melts.
Last year, they launched a seafood education initiative called Dish on Fish to help educate Americans about the importance of eating seafood and to encourage seafood consumption so be sure to follow them if you’re looking for easy ways to eat more seafood! You can find them on Pinterest, Twitter and Facebook.
Did you know that the most recent 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines For Americans recommend all Americans eat at least 2-3 servings (8 ounces) of seafood, which includes fish and shellfish, per week?
I’ve given you a few recipe ideas for fish so today we’re moving on to shrimp! It’s one of my go-to proteins when I need a healthy protein option that cooks in a hurry. Plus shrimp taste good hot and cold!
For this recipe, I decided to put a spin on one of our favorites – curry- by using a noodle base instead of serving it over rice like I usually do. And to make it even more fun, I combined two types of veggie noodles – spiralized zucchini and sweet potato – with rice noodles for a fun way to add extra veggies. Paired with some of my favorite curry staples like spinach, peas and coconut milk, these shrimp curry noodle bowls are a fun twist on traditional curry.
I used mild curry paste since my almost-one-year-old LOVES curry but you could use medium or hot to give it a spicy kick! You could also sub your favorite veggie noodles – squash or carrot would be good! And if you’re not a rice noodle fan, you could leave those out completely!
Here’s how you make it:

This looks amazing. I’ll definitely give this a try. I love fish and I eat 3 or 4 servings a week. One of my favorite dishes is a simple stir-fry with sardines, which are super cheap, and like shrimp they are near the bottom of the food chain so you don’t have to worry about mercury. But a shrimp curry with spiralized veggies sounds wonderful!
What brand of curry paste do you use? I always just use powder mixes, but something premade would be great!
Omg that looks fantastic. Will be trying this recipe immediately. I love Shrimp curry. Thanks for sharing!
I made this for dinner tonight with a green curry and served it over cauliflower rice. Very delicious! Thank for sharing!
