Shrimp and Avocado Stuffed Mushrooms

January 31, 2015 By Natasha 4 Comments

Shrimp and Avocado Stuffed Mushrooms

Shrooms and Shrimps anyone??

I must say that on Super Bowl Sunday, I’m all about eating ALLLL the foods! I like to taste and try many options throughout game day, so finger foods are great in my book for an awesome potluck or party with friends.  These little appetizer size bites of goodness were actually my lunch one day when I wanted something different.  But, they make for a great appetizer you can make for a crowd.

I used baby bella mushrooms because I tend to like the flavor more than white button mushrooms.  But either one will do just fine in this recipe.  As for the shrimp, I used frozen, uncooked, tail-on shrimp because that’s what I usually keep on hand.  You can definitely use whatever type you prefer.

The quantity amounts in this recipe can be increased very easily.  Just use as many shrimp and mushrooms as you would like to have appetizers for.  So, this uses 16 shrimp and mushrooms and will make 16 individual mushrooms.  Serving amount per person will depend on what other yummy goodies will be served at the party!

Equipment You’ll Need:

  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Pairing knife
  • Measuring spoons

Quick and Easy Paleo Shrimp Tacos

Paleo Shrimp Tacos

I like TACOS. Like, I really like them.  I could eat them on the daily, but especially on Taco Tuesdays! Shrimp tacos cook super fast, so this recipe is great when you need a quick dinner! I like to always have a bag of frozen, uncooked shrimp in my freezer because they are super easy to defrost in a pinch. 

For the shrimp, my favorite way to cook them is in the oven under the broiler for approximately 6 minutes.  It’s fast and hassle free.  I melt some ghee and my seasonings and toss the thawed shrimp to coat both sides.  Then lay them flat on a foil lined baking sheet for easy clean up.  You know the shrimp are cooked when they turn pink.

For the tortillas, I used Stupid Easy Paleo’s recipe for Simple Paleo Tortillas.  They are stupid easy! And so good!

For the Cumin-Lime Crema, I used the recipe from the Tacolicious’ cookbook.  When I’m in SF every other week, I enjoy going to TLish for some Taco Tuesday!!

For the salsa, I made a Fall inspired Pomegranate Apple Mango Salsa.  This may seem to be an unlikely combo, but trust me, it worked!
