You’ve been warned: this unassuming little recipe is dynamite. Let’s face it-Cajun Shrimp has been a favorite of mine ever since I can remember. My childhood BFF is from New Orleans and cajun and creole cuisine has always had a soft spot in my heart.

We would often trade lunch items back and forth; picking and choosing what we would both eat from whatever our moms packed for us that day.

It’s incredibly versatile too; think salads, pasta, roast potatoes… you name it! The possibilities are endless.

Tacos; one simple word that evokes so many mouth-watering variations!

It all starts with the shell: I ditched white flour & always opt for organic yellow or white corn tortillas. You can find them in the frozen section of most health…… Continue reading Easy Cajun Shrimp Tacos!
