Great tacos

The shrimp tacos were delicious. I was happy to see the shrimp did not have any shell or "vein". The avocado was at perfect ripeness which is not easy to provide. I would order this again.

Yummy!

I loved this dish. I can’t do dairy but I’m sure it would have been even better with the yogurt sauce. Delicious. I appreciated the corn tortillas too since I am gluten and dairy free— Corn tortillas are always a bit more ‘breakable’ but I thought these ones are actually pretty good and good sized. I thought the portion size was good but my husband thought there should’ve been a little more shrimp

Good Tacos

A really good Shrimp Taco meal . perfectly portioned and well put together ingredients.
Just needs some consistency on the quality ( condition) of the Avocado in the box .. Best to add it when it’s firm so it’s ready when the box is delivered . Out last meal the avocado was not edible.

Light and tasty

This is my first meal with G&T; and my first meal prep kit ever! I enjoyed the tacos. Everything was fresh, even the avocado was perfectly ripe. Maybe it’s because I live down the street from where the meals are made but, yes, all of it was fresh. And the directions were clear and easy.

A few recos: the corn tortillas fall apart. Flour tortillas would probably be better for strength. Tip: I found that microwaving them helped a little in keeping them together (putting them on the stove and warming them in the oven dry them out so they crumble easier. The microwave retains their moisture).
And a personal preference: I wish the shrimp had been deveined.
I loved the spice, the cilantro-cabbage, the yoghurt, and the fresh avocado. It made for a healthy, light, tasty and spicy meal. This NYC Texan was happy and satisfied! Thanks, y’all!

Almost great

This meal is easy to prepare and quite tasty. But the tortillas fell apart in our hands and we had a mess everywhere. Hardier tortillas would make this a 5 star dish.
