These tacos are super delicious and really easy to make. If you need to have dinner on the table in 20 minutes, this is a great meal. I made my tacos with shrimp, but you could easily substitute a white fish like Mahi-Mahi, chicken or tofu to make these vegetarian. I found some really great tortillas by Mission called ancient grains. They are made with quinoa and other healthy grains and are only 100 calories each.
Slaw
1 cup sliced red cabbage
1/4 sliced green onion
1 diced avocado
1 diced mango
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp chopped macadamia nuts
1/4 tsp salt
Pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Set aside.
Shrimp
1 lb shrimp (25 to 30)- peeled and deveined (or white fish, chicken, tofu)
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Caribbean Jerk seasoning
Juice of one lime
Marinade shrimp in olive oil, jerk seasoning and lime for 5 minutes. Cook on preheated skillet until opaque, about two minutes each side. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Tortillas
8 tortillas (whole grain is best)
In the same pan you used for the shrimp, warm your tortillas. Cook tortillas on each side for about a minute.
Add 3-4 shrimp per taco and top with the slaw.
