SHRIMP TACOS WITH AVOCADO SALSA
These super easy, healthy tacos are completely delicious. (This is an adaptation of a recipe by Layla for Gimme Delicious.) The calorie count in this recipe is based on a regular flour tortilla, but if you want to cut out 100 calories per taco, try using low-carb, high fiber, low calorie tortillas. I love the "Ole Mexican Xtreme Wellness" tortillas that you can find at Walmart. They taste great. You can also substitute plain yogurt for the sour cream to reduce the fat. Enjoy!

Steps:
- To cook the shrimp: In a medium bowl whisk together olive oil, garlic, cumin, chili and onion powders, cayenne pepper, and salt. Add in shrimp, corn and black beans, and toss to coat completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes or up to 24 hours. Heat a large heavy-duty or cast iron skillet on high heat for 2 minutes. Add the olive oil and shrimp. Cook shrimp in a skillet over medium-high heat until pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat and finish with a squeeze of lime (optional).
- To make salsa: Combine tomato, avocado, jalapeno, salt, pepper, lime juice, and cilantro in a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside. (If not using right away, place a piece of plastic wrap inside the bowl and directly over salsa to prevent discoloration and refrigerate.).
- To make sauce: Stir sour cream with cilantro and lime juice in a small bowl; set aside.
- To assemble tacos: Grill tortillas on stovetop over the flame until lightly charred (this step is optional). Spoon avocado salsa generously over warm tortillas, then top with 3 shrimp and drizzle with sour cream sauce. Serve tacos with lime wedges on the side.
