Easy Shrimp Tacos - Low in Calories too!


If I haven't already done so, I must express my affection of easy, tasty recipes.  I have 3 kiddos - 2 of which I homeschool & a 1 year old sweet boy attached to my hip.  Time is one thing that I never have enough of, and on days where I am falling incredibly short on it - quick homemade suppers are a necessity.  


Now pair quick together with healthy, and you have a weekday (or weekend) winner!  These tacos are about 300 calories for 2 of them, so eat up!


Here is what you need:




Roughly chop the shrimp.  Uneven Rustic is good.  Pour the black bean salsa on top of the shrimp, cover, & refrigerate for an hour.




Chop the tomatoes & cilantro.  Combine in a bowl.  Cover,  & refrigerate until you want to serve.




Prep the taco shells with shredded lettuce.




Dump the shrimp/salsa mixture into a skillet, & cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes - just to warm through.  Using a slotted spoon, divide the mixture among the taco shells.  Top with tomatoes & cilantro.
