Create a flavour packed bowl with rice and black beans, veggies, and fresh avocado. Serve up a big bowl of amazing colour, making sure not to forget some zesty lime flavours full of nutrients. We can very well throw this meal into the category of Rescue Meals. A go-to-meal that can easily bail you out on days you walk into the kitchen and stand still in the middle, gobsmacked in wonder of what to make. Or like me, when you have the dilemma of ‘how many dishes am I about to create’? Another mind boggling question is always; ‘Who is doing the dishes? Or what did we have last night? Then the daunting reality sets in that you are supposed to cook a full meal again. This shrimp bowl is a quick and easy 20 minutes meal from start to finish. The shrimp is seasoned with Mexican spices and fresh lime juice, then served with cilantro lime rice and fresh veggies. The protein in this recipe is interchangeable, so try it with salmon, chicken breasts, or even tofu. One of my favourite things to do in the kitchen is finding ways to switch up dinner throughout the week while still keeping them simple. Because honestly, who has the time, right? I don't care what Yoncès Internet says, but there aren't enough hours in a day. A pro con with fish dishes is that generally it cooks in a fraction of your other meat types. The sautéed shrimp comes together in just a few minutes and adds a delicious protein to these bowls! The herby lime rice is made with just a few simple ingredients and great to use as a base in these bowls and others throughout the week as well. You’ll love this satisfying meal! If you want to switch it up, I’d try using salmon or grilled chicken. I actually served the rice with roast chicken with a side of root veggies seasoned with amazing Hinds seasoning.
