Being from Louisiana, I love Seafood. We eat Seafood at least 3 times a week. Shrimp and Grits are one of my favorite meals to eat.
Switched up my recipe with a new product called Sam’s Fresh Salsa. Sam’s Fresh Salsa is fresh, delicious, and perfect for dinner or your next family party. Available in 3 flavors, Medium Salsa, Cantina Medium Salsa, Salsa Verde, and Watermelon Jicama Salsa.
I used the Sam’s Cantina Medium Salsa in this recipe. The Cantina Medium Salsa had a nice kick. I loved the consistency of the salsa.
Here is the recipe with this Salsa, Fajita Shrimp & Grits
