MEAL-PREP SHRIMP BURRITO BOWLS - vhira.com




Quick 30-minute meal-prep burrito bowls loaded with spicy shrimp, fajita veggies, black beans, brown rice, and a spicy 2 ingredient cream sauce. 

Meal-prep just got a whole lot tastier with these shrimp burrito bowls. They’re loaded with spicy shrimp, charred fajita veggies, beans, corn, brown rice and topped with a tasty creamy sauce.

The entire dish comes together very quickly and can be all done in under 30 minutes. I first cook the bell peppers in a tablespoon of olive oil until they are soft and tender, then remove them and add the shrimp and cook for just 2 minutes or until done! The shrimp is seasoned with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. If you don’t have all the spices on hand, taco seasoning works great too!




I like to keep the sauce on the side so I don’t microwave it when heating the dish. These small plastic containers are great for prepping the sauces. They’re cheap and disposable!  You can order these small 2 oz containers on Amazon or check at your local target near the plastic spoons and plates.

RubySnap Judy Orange Cream Cookies

There’s a little hidden gem in a small shop right outside of downtown Salt Lake City, Utah that sells unique cookies that keeps me coming back for more. It’s called RubySnap and they have quite the following. We have a tradition of traveling to Park City every October to watch a football game and see actual leaves change colors. It’s a rite of passage to visit RubySnap to get our cookie fix when we are in town. Last time we were there, I brought all of my brothers along with me. We are all crazy foodies! We sampled almost every single flavor and went home with two large boxes of cookies. My Dad was shaking his head at our antics. I told him that he raised us to love good food! After partaking way too many cookies, we voted on our favorites and since then, I am have been busy in the kitchen trying to replicate their famous cookies. This copycat recipe took some trial and error in the kitchen and I think we finally nailed it! This RubySnap Judy Orange Cream Cookie starts...
