Fast, Easy and Delicious Shrimp Tacos

Hey there everyone!! I haven't posted a recipe in awhile so I decided to tell you about these fast and delicious shrimp tacos I made for dinner last night. In case you haven't picked up on it, I LOVE tacos. I must have 5 different recipes about tacos because not only are they easy and quick, but they also never disappoint.

Ingredients

• 1 pound of de-veined and cleaned shrimp (I used small shrimps, but you can use any size and any amount, depending on how many people you plan to serve them to)

• Raw red cabbage (For this, I had some leftover for when I top my salads)

• Onion (Any color, this is also optional)

• Halved cherry tomatoes

• Greek yogurt (A great alternative to sour cream without losing the tangy taste and texture)

• Shredded cheddar cheese

• Salsa

• Flour or corn tortillas

• Lime juice

• Chili powder

• Garlic

• Jalapeños

Step 1: I personally like to do all my chopping and prep before I get started on my shrimp. First I chopped some onion, halved my cherry tomatoes, chopped my jalapeños and re-cleaned off my shrimp.

Step 2: Put some olive oil in a pan and then drop in your shrimp. Then you can add your lime juice, garlic, and chili powder as you see fit. I chose chili powder and lime juice because lime juice just screams summer and the chili powder adds a little kick to the shrimp, which I love!

Step 3: Once your shrimp is done, lay out your tortillas and construct your taco to your liking! 

I absolutely LOVED this dinner; between the tastiness of the shrimp, the crunchiness of the cabbage and the spiciness of the jalapeños, pure heaven! Unfortunately, I couldn't find any ripe avocados otherwise I would have some avocado slices on these bad boys as well. There's really nothing better than a quick and easy meal that you get to construct yourself. At my house, my favorite night was always taco night, because I would LOAD my taco up with onions, meat, salsa and of course multiple layers of cheese!! 

If you want a little less carbs for this meal, try opting for some Bibb lettuce, the leaves are perfect for a carb-free wrap! Still a little nervous about the Greek yogurt swap? Understandable, it just doesn't seem right, but trust me, it is just as delicious, without all the calories! To make the transition a little easier, you can mix your salsa with your yogurt, for a creamy salsa or even mix it with your lime juice and your diced jalapeños for a chunkier, spicier sauce. Give it a try!!

ENJOY!!
