BUFFALO SHRIMP LETTUCE WRAPS
This recipe is sponsored by SeaPak®. Starting with frozen popcorn shrimp is a clever shortcut for this dish. Simply bake them until crispy then toss in a quick Buffalo sauce to pile high in crispy lettuce cups. The toppings channel familiar Buffalo-style accompaniments with chopped celery and carrots, crumbles of blue cheese and a drizzle of creamy ranch dressing.

Steps:
- Prepare the popcorn shrimp according to the package directions for the oven.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, then whisk in the hot sauce until smooth and combined. Keep warm.
- Toss together the diced celery, celery leaves, carrots, lime juice, a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl.
- Transfer the baked popcorn shrimp to a large heatproof bowl. Add the warm sauce and gently toss the shrimp with a rubber spatula until evenly coated.
- To assemble, put about 3 tablespoons of the Buffalo shrimp in the center of each lettuce leaf. Top with the celery-and-carrot mixture and crumbled blue cheese. Drizzle with ranch dressing and serve.
