Instructions
 

  • Cook the shrimp:
  • In a skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss shrimp with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook shrimp for 2–3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove from heat.
  • Make the dressing (optional):
  • Whisk olive oil, lime juice, cumin, honey, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Assemble the bowls:
  • In two serving bowls, divide the cooked rice (or cauliflower rice). Top with shrimp, avocado, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion.
  • Finish and serve:
  • Drizzle with the dressing and sprinkle with chopped herbs. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • Make it spicy: Add chili flakes or sliced jalapeños.
  • Swap the base: Use quinoa, lettuce, or no grain at all.
  • Great for meal prep: Store ingredients separately and combine before serving.
