Chipotle Veggie & Shrimp Tacos

Dinner, Recipes

Looking for a Gluten Free, Dairy free and Soy free dish? Look no more! This bowl is packed with nutrients, flavor and antioxidants. The bulk of this meal is vegetables so you will have no problem hitting your veggie intake goal if you make this. It is also very easy to meal prep or tailor to your diet. Simple skip the shrimp to make it a vegan meal or add some chicken to change the protein.

Due to some health concerns of people really close to me, I have been trying to cook Gluten and Dairy free meals. At first I thought that I would have to sacrifice taste but I was very wrong. I found that when you eat gluten and dairy free, you are often actually eating healthier because you resort to more vegetables to fill the meals. It also forces you to get our of your comfort zone and try new things.
