How to Make

Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper then coat with avocado oil.

For preparing the shrimp, make sure the shrimp is already peeled and de-veined. Place in bowl with seasonings and mix together. In a medium skillet, add avocado oil and heat pan. Place shrimp in pan and cook through turning the shrimp over every few minutes.

For preparing the guacamole, this recipe gives a great step by step tutorial to make. You can also use store bought.

Now it’s time to put the bites together. Place a tablespoon of guacamole on each sweet potatoes bite. Then place shrimp on top. Serve and enjoy!

Tips for Cooking Shrimp

• Make sure to de-vein all shrimp. You can also buy shrimp already de-veined.
• Saute on high heat. This gives them the best texture.
• Pay attention to the top part of the shrimp as it is the thickest part. The outside will cook first but when the top turns opaque then the shrimp is cooked.
• Remove the shrimp from the hot pan immediately so they don’t continue to cook.
