Mexican Shrimp Casserole + An Amazing Salad

Happy Friday Loves!

I made this amazing (HEALTHY and EASY!) Mexican Shrimp Casserole for some girlfriends on Wednesday night and it was a huge hit!

Thank you to The Investment Boenker and her fabulous mother, Ginger, for this recipee.  I adapted a bit.

Ingredients:
- 2 lbs shrimp
-Olive Oil
-Creole Seasoning
-1 red and 1 yellow pepper (diced)
-2 big jalapenos (I used fresh and diced them but you can use pickled or omit!)
-1 can corn
-1 can black beans (drained)
-green onions (diced)
-regular onions (diced)
-Shredded Mexican Cheese
-Avocado
-Salsa

1. Toss shrimp with olive oil and creole seasoning and cook on stovetop. I used a lot of creole seasoning because I love spicy!  
2. Put all ingredients into a pyrex dish and cover with cheese
3. Cook on 375 for 40 minutes.  Cover with foil for the first 20 minutes and then take off the foil for the last 20 minutes.
4. Serve over quinoa (I cook mine with chicken broth to be flavorful!) or some type of rice/couscous.  
5. Add sliced avocado and salsa to the top and enjoy!


All ingredients in pyrex!
All cooked and ready!!!

Cook on, friends!
