Coconut Shrimp Tacos

Earlier this year, I had posted a blog/recipe on how to make coconut shrimp. I love eating it with rice or veggies, but I wanted to find more ways to consume these tasty shrimp.

While browsing through the fridge at my work yesterday, I noticed that they suddenly had mangoes for their employees. Random, but I decided to take one home and experiment with a tropical version of tacos :)

I envisioned: coconut shrimp + mangoes + avocados + some kind of lemon aioli. I loved all of these ingredients individually, so why not throw them all together! Needless to say, it was a winner! I loved the coconut flavors married with the citrus! A bit more work than just simple coconut shrimp, but worth it.

To see how I made and assembled all of this, see below instructions.
