Feel free to add additional vegetables and swap the shrimp for chicken, steak, tofu or edamame.
Cilantro-Lime Shrimp Bowl
This cilantro-lime shrimp bowl has tons of flavor and texture.
The cilantro-lime shrimp is tangy and fresh, with brown rice and creamy avocado to balance the flavor.
The two-chile cream sauce is easy to make and brings all the flavors of this bowl dinner together.
Cream cheese adds the final bit of richness and a hint of sweet tang.
Giving lemons a quick sizzle in the skillet amps up the flavor of this piccata-inspired dish.
The heat helps release even more citrus juice and sweetens it too.

The shrimp and veggies are cooked in the same skillet, so cleanup is a snap too.
We love the unique combination of blueberries, edamame, and goat cheese.

Chipotle peppers add kick to this tofu and broccoli stir-fry recipe.
If you’re shy about spice, cut back on the amount or leave them out completely.
Serve over brown basmati rice.
Here, we combine it with avocados in an easy no-cook meal.

Serve them on buns or stuff them in pitas.
