Amazing Shrimp Tacos

We love a good taco at our house, and in recent years, we’ve come to especially love shrimp tacos. I’ve shared posts here about trying to replicate restaurant’s recipes where we’ve eaten.

I have just kept making little changes to improve my recipe. Last week I think I finally landed on our absolute favorite way to eat this fishy taco! The blessing is that it’s still very simple and also super fast! I’m excited to share the recipe with you!

Meal plans for This Week

I’m making my menu after being away from home a week and a half. A sweet friend offered to pick up my grocery order for me so I’d have food ready for meals when we got home. What a blessing! Kroger has a super deal right now – $15 off a $75 pick-up order. Love that, too!

Come along while I plan out some of the meals we’ll eat this week!

Healthy, Delicious Taco Salad Bowls

Southwest Turkey Burgers with Chipotle Yogurt Sauce

On these beautiful spring days, I’m always thinking of grilling out.  Who doesn’t love a good ol’ hamburger cooked on the grill?  This recipe is made with turkey meat and has lots of yummy stuff added to give it super great flavor!  Combined with the burgers is a yogurt sauce that adds just enough kick to make you lick your fingers and smack your lips!!!  

Ready?  Here it is:

Delicious Side Dish – French Peas

Repetition isn’t my favorite in basically any area.
Songs on repeat.
Same outfit.
Same restaurant.
One kind of weather all year.
Worship music that pounds out one phrase over and over.
The same vegetables for every supper.

Can you relate to that last one? Peas, green beans and corn are all good, but if you just warm them up and serve them as is, they can be pretty repetitious and boring!

Enter the recipe for French Peas. Doesn’t that sound fancy? They taste fancy, but they’re so simple to make! I found this recipe on Taste of Home’s site. You might crinkle your nose when you read the ingredients and say, “Water chestnuts with peas?!” But trust me, it adds a nice crunchy texture. All these flavors meld perfectly together, taking the ordinary pea and turning it into a spectacular side dish!
