A Cilantro lime shrimp quinoa bowl is the perfect meal for a day like today! It has felt like spring all weekend. I am hoping the warm weather is here to stay. I was able to enjoy the weather this weekend. I spent my last moments of the weekend outdoors and firing up the grill. I grilled the shrimp in this recipe. The shrimp turned out amazing! You are more than welcome to sautee the shrimp in a skillet on the stove, as well.

I love to use shrimp in a dish like this because shrimp is lean and high in protein. A jumbo piece of shrimp has about 3 ounces of protein and little to no fat and carbs.
This recipe is loaded with immense flavor. I added the shrimp to a Ziploc bag. I then drizzled fresh lime juice throughout the bag and over the shrimp. I sprinkled the seasonings throughout. I allowed the shrimp to marinate in the fridge for about 45 minutes. I love to marinate, especially when grilling. This allows the juice and seasonings to soak into the shrimp.
For meal prep I added roasted broccoli and cauliflower. I also stored the avocado and additional lime separately. I do not want to heat the lime and avocado each day along with the shrimp, quinoa, beans, and veggies.
