  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt

For the Spicy Shrimp Tacos:

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or coconut oil

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin

Directions

In the bowl of a food processor, add avocado, lime juice, cilantro, sour cream, yogurt, salt and pepper. Process until smooth and transfer to a squeeze bottle; reserve.
