Ingredients
- 1 lb raw shrimp
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2.5 avocados, chopped
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 0.25 cup blue cheese
- 3 pieces of bacon cooked and chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 jalapeno, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- In a large saute pan, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 clove of crushed garlic.
- Once the pan starts to sizzle add the shrimp and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the shrimp turn pink. Make sure they are cooked through but don’t over cook. Should take 5-7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile add the avocados, 1 clove of crushed garlic, tomatoes, lemon juice, jalapeños (if using) and blue cheese to a bowl and mix gently so the avocados stay in nice chunks.
- Add in the cooled shrimp and toss lightly along with half of the bacon.
- Sprinkle the rest of the bacon on top.
- Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until ready to eat.
