Ingredients

  • 1 lb Shrimp
  • 0.5 head Cabbage
  • 1 medium Carrot
  • 0.25 medium Red onion
  • 0.25 cup Dairy-free mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Lime juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon Chipotle powder
  • 12 count Corn tortillas
  • 1 medium Avocado
  • 0.25 cup Cilantro

Instructions

  1. 1Prepare the spicy slaw: Finely shred the 0.5 head of cabbage and the 1 medium carrot. Thinly slice the 0.25 medium red onion. In a medium bowl, whisk together the 0.25 cup dairy-free mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 0.5 teaspoon chipotle powder until smooth to create the slaw dressing.
  2. 2Combine the slaw ingredients: Add the shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, and sliced red onion to the bowl with the slaw dressing. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
  3. 3Cook the shrimp: Heat a grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F or 200°C) or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 1 lb shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  4. 4Warm the tortillas: Heat the 12 count corn tortillas on a dry skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, until they are warm and pliable.
  5. 5Prepare the avocado: Slice the 1 medium avocado.
  6. 6Assemble the tacos: Place a warm tortilla on a plate. Layer with the cooked shrimp, a generous portion of the spicy slaw, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of the 0.25 cup cilantro.
