From a Dietitian’s Kitchen – Shrimp Fajitas with Mango Slaw

Break up your summer dinner routine with this sweet mango and zesty lime shrimp fajita recipe. The fajitas and slaw were really easy and quick to prepare. My family loved the slaw with fresh summer mango and cilantro for a taste twist. Helpful mango tip: cut the mango in half around the pit and run it over the lip of a drinking glass to scoop the fruit out!
