Friday night I had invited friends over earlier in the week and forgot to prep a meal, I had to think quick and come up with something appetizing for my foodie friends. These tacos are not only simple to make but gives the illusion of intense effort with handmade corn tortilla's, grilled shrimp & guacamole from scratch. ..its also freaking delicious!
