Shrimp Fajita Tacos
These Shrimp Fajita Tacos are the answer to Taco Tuesday in less than 30 minutes, which is handy if you happen to also be doing a Whole30. I make these regularly (not just on Tuesdays), and I love to serve them with my Cauliflower Spanish Rice. Top them with your favorite fresh veggies and some Avocado Crema (recipe included below) for an added layer of freshness in every bite.
A key ingredient to the flavor is Taco & Fajita Spice Blend. Alternatively, I love to use the Taco Seasoning from Primal Palate, which is what I've outlined in the recipe below.
