Tacos are my “single girl” food. You know, the food that you make whenever your partner, kids, or roommates are out of town and you get to sit down and be really honest about what you and only you feel like eating? I never tire of them and am always looking for ways to amp up my taco game.

One way to take a quesadilla from snack to a meal is to add some protein, like chicken, beef, or in this case shrimp.
