Shrimp & Mango Tacos were inspired by my hubby. I needed some inspiration to be creative with dinner and while texting my husband back & forth, I asked him to give me inspiration. He said “make something with mangos and jalapenos” So, this is what I came up with & it was delish! Mexican Food is really yummy but making it “figure friendly” is always a challenge. The nutrition below is for the Shrimp & Mango mixture only. I ONLY use La Tortilla factory low carb/high fiber tortillas since they are WW 1 pp+ . I do realize that they are difficult to find….so this is why I only calculated the shrimp mixture. My entire taco was 5 points, and I only ate one because it was so filling. The leftovers tasted even better because all the flavors married together. We had the leftovers about 3 days later and I added rainbow salad mixture to my taco for a little crunch.
