Spicy Shrimp Tacos

Spicy Shrimp Tacos

These spicy shrimp tacos you can really do any way, we did ours on the grill and my husband wanted them to be saucy. So we just whipped up a spicy sauce from what we had at home. Of course these would be so much better on a corn or flour tortilla but we are trying to eat better!

Ingredients: 

Bag of frozen or fresh shrimp 

2 avacados
4-5 garlic cloves chopped 
1 tomato 
1 jalapeño 
1 onion 

1 1/2 limes

Cilantro 

1/2 can of tomato sauce
1/4 cup- 1/2 cup depending on spice of El Gallo jalapeño salsa

A few squeezes of Humble house Guajillo and red jalapeño garlic sauce
4 cloves of garlic chopped

Cumin

Chili powder

Garlic powder

Shrimp:
