This recipe was just okay. I think I would have liked it better if I had used fresh shrimp instead of frozen.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I also like to add some chopped red bell pepper for a bit of color.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

This recipe was a disappointment. The shrimp was overcooked and the avocado was mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was fantastic! The shrimp and avocado paired perfectly with the nutty flavor of the brown rice. I added a bit of extra lime juice and cilantro for a pop of freshness. Will definitely be making this again!
