Can you air fryer shrimp?
Of course! I love my air fryer to make the shrimp – it cooks up so quick – and doesn’t heat the stove up or make a mess! I sprinkle the shrimp with seasoning and it’s done in 5 minutes (flip halfway through). That’s it!!!

Throwing together a taco salad is one of the easiest meals for me to make – I’ve always got a bag of lettuce on hand (romaine is my favorite) and then I just add avocado or guacamole, cheese, salsa and sour cream!

Shrimp is so easy in the air fryer – and don’t overcook it! It just needs a few minutes. I always pop the tails off too before I cook them so they’re easy to eat.

Hi, I don’t have an Air Fryer and don’t want one either. How would I do the Taco Shrimp salad the normal way ?
You can saute the shrimp in a little olive oil on the stove in a skillet. Season the shrimp and then place in skillet.
