Grilled Shrimp Tacos

Saturday, May 2, 2015 by Lolli 6 Comments

 

Hey Food Fun Family readers! Kristin from Ro*Tel here… I am excited to be writing for Laura today! Let me tell you a little bit more about myself. I live in the Windy City, aka Chicago, with my dog, Joey. Living in a city with something always happening, on the weekends I like to check out our Museum Campus, a local show at a dive bar or eat at a new restaurant in one of the neighborhoods. You can find me running outside along Lake Shore Drive or lounging on the couch binge-watching Netflix when I am not in the kitchen whipping up one of my favorite recipes for friends and family.

Grilling season is upon us! Nothing gets me more excited for summer than firing up the grill on a brisk spring day. Brats, corn on the cob and veggie shish kabobs are a few of my favorite things to sizzle outside. Just in time for Cinco de Mayo, I’m planning to make this simple shrimp taco recipe for my dinner party! As a taco-lover, I am really excited about this zesty avocado and tomato salsa. And the beauty of tacos is that you can use whatever toppings you like!
