Notes
- *Keep in mind weight of shrimp should be taken after thawing.
- **1/2 cup light sour cream can be used here in place of the mayonnaise and full fat sour cream.
- ***If you don't like spicy food just substitute chipotle chili powder with another 1/2 tsp regular chili powder.
- ****My favorite way to warm tortillas is to lightly brush both sides of corn tortilla with a little canola oil then heat in a non-stick skillet over until golden brown spots appear, then flip and cook opposite side.
