Do you ever have one of those evenings that the cook kind of has a mind of its own? I wanted to try making green lightning shrimp, but my wife is sensitive to spicy foods at the moment - so I’m thinking substitute green chilis for jalapeños. I have fresh peaches so I thought - peach salsa - that will go well with shrimp. I had green chilies out so I thought I might as well make green chili corn tortillas. What to go with it? Well, why not corn fritters with some green chilies? So that’s what I did...
So I made tortillas...
Then the fritters.
Then grilled the shrimp.
Y’all, this wasn’t shabby. Thanks for looking.

I put my version of Chuy’s creamy jalapeno dip on the fritters - I put it in a squeeze bottle. On the tacos it is (store bought) Herdez guacamole salsa.bgebrent said:Condiments on those gorgeous tacos please?

That's just not right! Meant in the most jealous way possible. Everything looks fabulous. What a cool tortilla press."The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan
