Isn't this picture of my niece Anna Kate so adorable? Nothing like posing on the back of Daddy's pick-up truck! This girl is going to break some hearts one day!!!
Past couple nights I've tried some new, healthy recipes and I just had to share this one. It's amazing. This is my picture but I'm going to put the one from Gina's Skinny Taste too because hers looks so much better. I made some alterations to the recipe so I'll note those below too. If you haven't used Gina's Skinny Recipes website yet, you're missing out!

- 1 tbsp chopped cilantro

- I added 3 fresh cloves of garlic
In a small bowl combine red onion, lime juice, garlic, olive oil, pinch of salt and pepper. Let them marinate at least 5 minutes to mellow the flavor of the onion.
In a large bowl combine chopped shrimp, avocado, tomato, jalapeño. Combine all the ingredients together, add cilantro and gently toss. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Makes 3 1/2 cups
Super easy for a weeknight meal and healthy too! Kevin wanted a lil something extra (umm yes - I should have done a side with this) so he added some of this to a whole wheat wrap.
Yummy! This is my kind of meal ~ perfect for dinner while hubby is away :)
