Baja Shrimp Stacks 
Ingredients:

  • 1lb shrimp
  • 1/2c soy sauce
  • 2 TB brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced OR 1 medium cucumber, chopped
  • 2 large avocados
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2  single serve cups (we used White Rice variety, but the Ready to Serve cups also come in delicious Brown & Quinoa and Basmati varieties)
  • (Makes 2 Baja Shrimp Stacks)

INSTRUCTIONS
STEP ONE: Prepare rice — this step is a breeze with ! Simply pop in the microwave and they’re ready in 60 seconds! I also love that I don’t have to worry about measuring since they’re already perfectly pre-portioned.
STEP TWO: Peel and de-vein shrimp. You may chop into bite-sized pieces or leave whole, depending on preference. Add shrimp along with sliced red bell peppers to a lightly-oiled sauté pan on medium heat.
STEP THREE: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, and powdered ginger to form the sauce. Add to sauté pan with shrimp and peppers.
STEP FOUR: Cook shrimp and peppers in sauce for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
STEP FIVE: Use a soup bowl/cup to build your Baja Shrimp Stacks. Start by covering the bottom of the bowl with cooked shrimp and peppers (about 1 inch deep). The next layer is the Minute® Ready to Serve Rice single-serve cup (remove rice from plastic container in which it is cooked).
You’ll want to leave about 3/4 inch remaining for avocado and tomatoes (or cucumbers). Use your fingers or a spoon to pack down the ingredients so they will hold their shape when you flip the bowl over later.
TIP: To keep ingredients from sticking to the sides/bottom of the bowl, coat the bowl with a thin layer of oil (coconut, sesame, or vegetable oil would all work well and taste fantastic!)
STEP SIX: Remove avocado flesh from skins and scoop into a small mixing bowl. Using a fork, rough chop as if you were making a chunky guacamole. This is the next layer of the Baja Shrimp Stack. Finally, top the bowl with 2 tomato slices (or chopped cucumbers). Gently press down to pack the ingredients together.
