Instructions
In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil to medium heat and add your red bell peppers. Cook until softened; about 5 minutes. Then, add shrimp, garlic, and Mexican or Taco seasoning. Cook and stir for 4 to 6 minutes or until heated through. Remove from heat and add lime juice.
Place tortillas on a microwavable safe plate and microwave for 30 seconds before assembling. This helps the tortillas to stick more easily.

Notes
How can my kids help? Have them dump in all the ingredients with supervision of course :)If you decide to make your shrimp ahead of time after you cook your shrimp refrigerate it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. When you're ready to eat you can heat it up on the stove in a medium non-stick skillet with 1 tbsp of olive oil. Cook until heated through.
