Ingredients

Flour tortillas (use carb select as these are high in fiber–11 grams per tortilla)

1/2 pound shrimp

4 large romaine lettuce leaves (washed)

2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro

2 tablespoons fat free sour cream

1 cup shredded monterey jack/cheddar cheese mix, use low fat or 2%

1 cup of your favorite salsa

1 avocado

Optional-2 tablespoons chopped onion

Preparation

  1. Cook shrimp (steam, boil or grill), peel, chop and set aside. You can use precooked shrimp for speedier tacos
  2. Heat two skillets to medium/high
  3. Chop lettuce & mix in cilantro, put in a bowl, set aside
  4. Cut avocado in half, remove pit, scoop out both side of avocado and slice longwise, set aside
  5. Place 1 tortilla in each skillet, heat for about thirty seconds, then flip and heat for 30 more seconds
  6. Remove tortilla
  7. Spread 1-2 teaspoons of sour cream on tortilla
  8. For each taco, add a bit of the taco fillings– Shrimp, lettuce/cilantro mixture, onion, avocado slices (about two per taco) and cheese in the middle of each tortilla. Top with salsa to your liking (about 2 tablespoons per taco). Be careful not to add too much on each tortilla or you won’t be able to roll it.
  9. Roll tortilla keeping one end closed, serve with extra salsa. The closed end of the taco will keep the ingredients from falling out.
  10. Repeat steps 1-9 with the remaining ingredients until they’re finished. Depending on the size of the tortilla and amount you put inside each taco you will get about 4 servings. 1 Taco = 1 serving per person.
