Shrimp are high in protein and low in calories. One 4 oz serving of Shrimp has roughly 112 calories and 24 grams of protein. Shrimp contain high levels of two extremely important nutrients that are often hard to get enough of in your diet- Selenium and Vitamin D. Selenium has been found to help fight cancer, and it helps to boost your energy.
As far as finger food goes, shrimp cocktail is nutritionally one of the healthier options out there. Consider: One large shrimp has just 7 calories and almost no fat yet packs more than a gram of protein. By comparison, one cocktail-sized pig in a blanket has 67 calories, 6 grams of fat, and 1.5 grams protein. But serve up that shrimp without taking the proper safety precautions and you might end up sending your guests home with an unwanted party favor: food poisoning.
