    Grilled avocados stuffed with shrimp salsa

    These Grilled Shrimp Salsa Stuffed Avocados taste like summertime. It's weird to say something tastes like a season, but bear with us. Soups are comforting in the cold winter, everything is pumpkin spice flavored* for a few months in the fall, and this recipe is so fresh and light tasting it's perfect for the oppressive heat and humidity of summer.  Plus the avocados themselves are grilled. Of course, we used a cast iron grill pan, but if the weather is nice, toss 'em on the grill!

    We have more than a few relatives in the medical field, and a few weeks ago we were all together and talking about Keto.  The conversation eventually turned to avocados and how "avocado hand" was one of the most common reasons for E.R. visits.  We'd never heard of such a thing, but apparently, it's real and we've been cutting avocados wrong our whole lives, but what can we say? We like to live dangerously.  In case you're wondering how to safely cut an avocado click here.
