Notes

  • For meal prep, store the shrimp, salsa, and sauce separately. Assemble just before eating to keep the salsa fresh.
  • You can substitute the rice base with shredded lettuce for a lower-carb option.
  • If you do not have a grill, you can cook the shrimp in a skillet over medium-high heat.
