My sister-in-law made this for my family the other night and it was SO GOOD! I have no idea what the nutritional facts are but it sure went down nice and easy. I would think it would be pretty high in protein depending on how many shrimp you ate and not all that high in fat. It made up fast and easy and if you like shrimp I know you will like this.
