Hi friends!

Just popping in to share these Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas. There’s nothing super Valentine’s Day-esque about these…but they’re quick and easy and they taste good. So…that’s a win any night of the week in my book!

Shrimp is one of my favorite quick-cooking proteins. For this recipe you basically just toss them in some seasonings, throw them on a pan with some thinly sliced peppers and onions, let them cook for 10 minutes while you prep some 90-second rice and open a can of beans and boom! Dinner is served. You could also put everything in tacos or over some lettuce for a taco salad!
