Whole Foods Market: One-Day Sale on Cooked Shrimp on 10/19/12

It’s time for another Whole Foods Market One Day Sale! On 10/19/12, Whole Foods Market will have their Cooked White Shrimp on sale for $6.99lb. (nearly a 50% savings!) These are 31-40ct peeled with tail-on shrimp.

Here’s a little info on the shrimp:

These white shrimp are farm-raised in Thailand with strict standards for environmental protection. Plus, the farms are verified by annual third-party audits to ensure that farming practices meet Whole Foods Market’s Responsibly Farmed seafood standards, which prohibit phosphate and sulfate preservatives, antibiotics, and the use of feed containing poultry or mammalian products. And not only that, the shrimp is traceable to the source.

Thanks for sharing, Julie!

Shrimp is great to add to things such as pasta, stir-fries, rice dishes, etc. Here are a few recipes you could possibly use:

~Sautéed Shrimp with Zucchini and Tomatoes

~Spring Peas and Shrimp Stir-Fry with Ginger-Soy Glaze

~Brown Rice Pilaf with Shrimp & Wilted Radicchio

~Glazed Shrimp and Broccoli with Brown Rice

This would be a great way to stock up on shrimp for any holiday parties you may be planning. I always serve a small shrimp platter at our parties and they are one of the first things that are gone!
