10 Minute Shrimp Tacos

I love shrimp and making it into various forms however shrimp tacos has been a meal I have been enjoying a lot lately. This recipe is perfect for dinner or lunch during the week if you don't have much time on your hands. If for dinner, I enjoy pairing the shrimp tacos with corn on the cob or even another vegetable I may like. Otherwise for lunch, I would eat the tacos as they are and maybe even add more ingredients. This meal is also college student friendly, meaning it's affordable and easy. Typically it takes me less than 15 minutes to make. If you're looking for an easy delicious go to meal during the week, this is for you.

Ingredients

- Raw shrimp peeled
- 1 bag of rice
- 1 cup of sliced spinach
- Seven or more chopped grape tomatoes
- 1 cup of shredded cheese
- 1 chopped onion
- Ortega taco sauce, medium
- Soft tortilla wraps
- Lemon pepper
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Half a spoonful of olive oil
- Half a cup of water

Directions:

- Heat oil and water in a medium skillet over medium heat . Then add shrimp and diced onion. Season shrimp and onions with lemon pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to your liking.
- Allow the shrimp to cook for about 10 minutes or until done.
- Boil a pot of water and insert the bag of rice, cook until done.
- Heat tortillas in the microwave or 30 seconds or more.
- Serve tortilla with shrimp inside as well as rice, tomatoes, spinach, cheese, and sauce.

This recipe is quick simple and very fulfilling. Personally, I always like to add different things to my tacos to mix it up or add more flavor. Some things I may include are avocado, mango, beans, cucumber, and potatoes. Cooking has always been a hobby but I am also a fan of healthy eating and this recipe is definitely a clean way of eating, that can benefit both your appetite and body. Feel free to use this recipe and even change it to cater to your preferences.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
