Notes

  • You may use different colored bell peppers or stick to one color.
  • I like using jump shrimp, but you may use large. It is best to use raw shrimp. These can be found in the frozen section. They also come already peeled and deveined. It will save you time.
  • If you have any store-bought taco or fajita seasoning you like, you can use that instead. More time-saving.
