Chipotle Shrimp Tacos
One of my favorite summer tacos. It’s high in protein and has lots of flavor.

It’s insane how much flavor is packed into this. You could make this with chicken or any other meat you want. The great part about using frozen shrimp, however, is that it comes together in under 10 minutes.
