For these tacos I use SeaPak Chili Lime Marinated Shrimp– they add even more flavor to the dish, and I can keep them in the freezer for a quick meal. Shrimp tacos are super healthy as well- I love knowing that my family is getting a great source of protein. These shrimp are also sustainably certified, farm-raised, gluten-free and also free of trans fats, additives and preservatives!

To make these sweet and sour tacos I coated the shrimp in my favorite sweet and sour sauce and added pineapple chunks, peppers, and carrots! The pineapples and the shrimp make this seem like a fancy meal, but it is so easy for a week night as well!
