Shrimp Fajitas & Matchbox 20

Sorry it's been so long since my last blog post! When things get crazy, some things get put on the back burner, but I'm sorry this was one of those things! Anywho, this past weekend my sister and I went to L'auberge Hotel & Casino in Baton Rouge to see Matchbox 20. The event was outside and luckily it didn't started drizzling until the end of the concert. Nevertheless, we had a blast!



Now for my recipe of the day. I decided to make Shrimp Fajitas for lunch for me and my mom. I bought a pound of unpeeled shrimp, fresh pre-cut fajita veggie mix, and tortillas to make the fajitas.
  • 1 pound unpeeled shrimp (of course, you need to peel them and rinse them)
  • 1 tsp safflower oil
  • 8 oz of mixed veggies (green, red, orange, and yellow bell pepper and onion)
  • 2 La Tortilla Factory tortillas
  • Half an avocado
  • 1/2 diced tomato
  • 1/3 cup of cheese, if desired
  • 1 TBSP salsa
1. Peel the shrimp, and season with garlic powder and lite salt in a non-stick pan for about 2 mins on each side. Be careful not to overcook them.
2. Saute the veggies in 1 tsp of safflower oil, until soft, which is about 5-7 mins. Then set aside with the shrimp.
3. Take half an avocado and spread it on the tortilla (not too much, just a nice thin layer). Then add sauteed veggies, shrimp, diced tomato, cheese, and salsa and roll into a burrito.
4. Pop it in the microwave for 15-20 secs just to get it nice and warm.
5. Enjoy!
