Shrimp Tacos

Shrimp Tacos
These tacos are the perfect light (yet filling) dish to ring in the new year with! They’re packed with flavor, made with tons of healthy ingredients, and they’re FAST to whip together. I’ll share my favorite way to make shrimp tacos, but honestly, this shrimp is good enough to stand on its own — the seasoning mix is so delicious (while also remaining easy with few ingredients!)
What goes in a shrimp taco?
While you can load up your taco however you’d like, we’re obsessed with the easy slaw, sauce, and some fresh avocado (or guacamole) in these tacos!
 

Shrimp: of course this is a given! The shrimp is marinated for a bit in a delicious (easy) seasoning mix and some olive oil. Once it’s cooked, drizzle over fresh lime and it’s ready to go!Slaw: this slaw is simply shredded green cabbage mixed with the simple cilantro sauce. 

Cilantro Sauce: the sauce is multi-purpose: you’ll toss the slaw with the sauce and then also add a drizzle over the finished tacos. Not only is it easy to make, you can also prep this ahead of time (up to a day in advance).

Fresh Avocado/Guacamole: you can make your own quick guacamole or grab some at the store. Otherwise, a few slices of fresh avocado works great too. The avocado gives these tacos a delicious creamy element while keeping them healthy.
