Mummy’s Fast & Easy

Happy October/Pumpkin month guys!
This is one of my favourite months, everything is so colourful and there are pumpkins everywhere!
That said, I’ll be testing and sharing some new yummy pumpkin recipes with you so stay tuned!
Also, do leave a comment below with your favourite pumpkin recipe or a pumpkin recipe you want me to make!
Today’s recipe is super quick and simple. I had some crunchy taco shells and shrimp so I decided to create this. I made some bean salad to accompany them and mashed avocado with lemon. Don’t blame me, I know I should have used lime but I only had lemon in the fridge. And this recipe was created by using whatever was left in there!
It’s needless to say it was all gone really quickly. My little one loves the crunchy tortillas so she was munching on them. Me on the other side, loved the combination of everything in a shell!

Here’s what you need.

Preparation:
  1. Heat  a pan with the olive oil and add the shrimp, season with salt and spicy seasoning and gently sweat them for about 10 minutes. Remove from the hob. 
  2. Season the avocado with salt and some freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste.
  3. For the bean salad – add the chopped red onion, a bit of fresh parsley and season to taste.
  4. To serve the tacos – simply place all the ingredients in separate bowls so everyone can build their own taco! Kids absolutely love this!
Enjoy!

Tip: Feel free to improvise and use ingredients you and your family like! Throw some salad here and there or why not add some chopped jalapenos (if you can handle it)!
