    We thought this made a pretty good summer meal. The avocado salsa verde was cool and refreshing. The shrimp made a light taco filling. We would have preferred a little bit bolder, spicier flavors in the salsa. Next time, I think that I may add two or three fire roasted jalapenos.

    This was an awesome dish. Easy to make, a nice kick to it, and perfect for a hot summer night! The salsa verde is great to eat on the side with some tortillas as well!! Will make this again for sure!!!

    My wife and I made this meal and it was awesome! Went light on the salt and it wasn't missed a bit. This meal is a new favorite and will be in the regular rotation.

    Really easy and really good. I used some salsa verde with the avocado and it turned out great. I also used flour tortillas because I don't care for corn. The shrimp was amazing!!!

    This recipe far exceeded my expectations! I didn't have a jalapeno so I left it out and it was still spicy enough for me. I agree that cutting the salt would not go amiss - definitely start with less and add to taste. Also, the salsa was a bit watery in my making; it soaked the tortillas so a fork was required. Maybe drain before serving or "wring out" the tomatillos a bit? I am so happy to find a taco recipe that I don't have to add unhealthy condiments to make it tasty!

    I didn't believe it, but the salsa was the best! used 1/2 chipotle flakes & 1/2 chili powder, and my own home made cole slaw. Local shrimp so we had to boil them first, then just quick sauted in olive oil. These shrimp were small & lots of work, but the flavor layers were over the top! A dish suitable for company. Especially with margarita's on the side...

    First time I made this I loved it but decided to chop the shrimp into smaller pieces in the future because I wanted some shrimp with each bite.

    Tonight, I made this same basic recipe but instead of using shrimp I used talapia because it is what I had on hand. Loved it because it really dressed up this bland fish nicely. I will have to make it again for guests because I love the ease of this dish but loved the overwhelming flavor and visual appeal.

    I also think that guests love to help with the prep of any dish. This way they end up enjoying it even more and it becomes more of a learning experience.

    The avocado salsa was terrific, but the shrimp were incredibly salty. Also, the shrimp seemed kind of lonely in the shell, all by themselves. Some kind of slaw seemed to be needed. Not a keeper.....
