Description

When I need to get dinner on the table quick, these 20 minute Shrimp Burrito Bowls are what I turn to! I start with my special homemade (and easy to make!) shrimp spice blend that coats each tender piece of perfectly cooked shrimp. Then I build my bowl with cilantro lime rice and a variety of fresh toppings. These hearty bowls really do come together in 20 minutes and, because they’re so is easy to customize, they’re a great option for the entire family!
