These Spicy Shrimp Tacos with Avocado Cilantro Sauce are totally addicting and loaded with flavor!

I’m always looking for new ways to make tacos. We have tacos at least once a week in our house because:

A) We love tacos

B) They’re easy to whip up

and

C) We LOVE tacos

Since Shrimp was on sale this week I decided to spice them up to use for these tacos. Then I topped it with my yummy homemade Avocado Cilantro Sauce.

This sauce really ties all of the flavors in well with these tacos. Oh and if you have any sauce leftover it’s also good as a chip dip too! It’s sort of like a guac only not thick and chunky, but has a similar flavor.
