“We had the shrimp portion last night and it was super quick and really good. The shrimp were mild enough for our children to eat as well. This was a last minute dinner idea, so we did not have the ingredients on hand to make the salsa. Rather, I took the cabba” — a cook, 5★
“Wow. stumbled on this recipe when the SO wanted shrimp tacos last minute. I googled shrimp taco recipe and this was one of the first that came up so I quickly just printed it. Went to the store got the ingredients and cooked. First I have to say, I am by no me” — a cook, 5★
