These spicy shrimp and avocado bites get gobbled up in minutes every time I make them so you might want to double, triple, or quadruple the recipe! Don't say I didn't warn you.

I have been making these for years and am just finally getting around to posting the recipe because, well, I'm an idiot. No seriously, that's the reason. Recently, somebody saw these on my Instagram account and asked if the recipe was on my site. Here's how the convo went:
"These look delicious! Is the recipe on the site?"
"Actually, no."
"Why not?"
"Well, they're just so easy to make, I don't really think of it as a recipe."
"Great! That makes me want to make them even more!"
"Oh, okay. Wow, I'm an idiot!"
So anyway, me being an idiot aside, these little guys are delicious and EASY af. Which, it turns out, is a positive thing.
I hope you guys love these bites as much as I do!
