Receta Shrimp Pita with Avocado Dressing
We love shrimp at Carolina HeartStrings and Alessa and I both decided to create a wonderful sandwich using this favorite. Alessa’s shrimp and pimento cheese sandwich on Monday looked so yummy. It inspired me to pull the shrimp out of the freezer and whip up a quick tasty treat for lunch. This would be wonderful on a bed of lettuce or spinach if you were trying to cut down on carbs, but I used a low fat whole wheat pita pocket/wrap as a healthy choice.

- Boil the pound of shrimp if not already precooked. Drain and remove the tails. If it is precooked, thaw and remove the tails.
- Mix 1/2 cup mashed avocado, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt and the cayenne pepper and mix until creamy. Put in the fridge and chill while you are cooking the shrimp.
- After the shrimp is either boiled or thawed. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet. Cook the shrimp until it gets a light golden crust.
- Use your favorite pita or wrap and divide the shrimp evenly up between 4 pitas. I used spinach for a nice addition to my sandwich. Top with the avocado yogurt sauce and enjoy! Makes 4 servings.
