SHRIMP TACOS
I got the idea for these shrimp tacos from a favorite restaurant. The shrimp is sauteed in honey butter, topped with a delicious mango salsa, and wrapped in a tortilla. It tastes worth a million bucks yet is so simple. Everyone will be begging for more.

Steps:
- Fill a large bowl with 10 cups cool water; stir in 1/4 cup salt (it should taste like seawater). Add shrimp and soak 30 minutes, then drain.

Fry tortillas in batches until crispy, turning every 30 seconds, about 2 minutes total. Drain on paper towel-lined baking sheets and season with salt.

TANGY CUCUMBER SLAW FOR TACOS
I took the base of Martha Stewart's cucumber radish slaw and changed it up. This is great on top of tacos or with pork. You can use it like any other coleslaw. It's super tangy if you like a vinegar in-your-face tangy-type taste. I wanted to make a slaw without mayo to make a lower-fat version.

SHRIMP TACO SALAD
I created this main-dish salad to satisfy our family's love of shrimp. It has lots of contrasting textures, including firm taco-seasoned shrimp, crispy tortilla strips and hearty black beans. A convenient bag of salad greens cuts down on prep time, so I can have this meal ready in half an hour. -Ellen Morrell, Hazleton, Pennsylvania
