ingredients
8 Trader Joe’s jicama wraps
16 Cooked medium sized shrimp, shelled and deveined
1 Ripe Avocado, mashed with salt and pepper
½ Cup of Healthy Coleslaw
½ Orange bell pepper, sliced into small strips
DIRECTIONS
1. Put about ½ tablespoon of smashed avocado on the bottom of each wrap. Top with a couple of strips of bell pepper, two shrimp and a hefty tablespoon of my coleslaw (Get recipe here)
2. Serve with sliced lemon or lime (optional)
NOTE: This was the find of the century for me! These jicama wraps are amazing. They are crunchy and moist have only 15 calories for two and taste amazing. This combo is particularly light and refreshing and would be oh so good with a couple of skinny margaritas!
Run, don’t walk, to Trader Joes to try these. I haven’t seen them anywhere else yet. But I have no doubt I will. They are amazing.
Now this dish also gets a lot of flavor and crunchy texture from my coleslaw recipe. I’ve been making this for years and use it on tacos, as a side dish with a sandwich, on pulled pork sandwiches and even as a topping on burgers and hot dogs. It is lite and crunchy and has that whole sweet and vinegar thing going on but all good for you. I use sugar substitute in the dressing so this is a win win for me.
