Shrimp is a great source of low-fat protein, heart-healthy omega-3s and vitamin B-12. The juicy prawns are also a good option for a light lunch, especially when spiked with a little Sriracha hot sauce. This spicy wrap takes almost no time to prepare (keep cooked shrimp handy to shave off even more prep time) and it’s so satisfying it’ll likely become a midday go-to.
