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.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige.
