Notes
- Remove the shrimps from the oven when they have turned pink and opaque. Do not overcook your shrimps at all as they turn gummy very quickly.
- I use blue corn chips for an extra crunch but the chips are totally optional - so are the veggies. I’ve used spinach, chopped tomatoes, canned black beans, cooked corn, avocados, and scallions but you can go for whatever you want.
- You can make a double batch of avocado dressing and serve it with another salad, baked potatoes or as a nacho dip over the next days.
