TIPS FOR SUCCESS

Spiciness: Adjust the amount of jalapeño pepper in the mango salsa according to your spice preference. If you prefer milder flavors, you can reduce or omit the jalapeño altogether.

Tortillas: You can use either corn or flour tortillas for this recipe, depending on your preference. Warm the tortillas before assembling the tacos to make them more pliable and easier to handle.

Optional Feta Cheese: The crumbled feta cheese is an optional addition, but it adds a creamy and salty element to the tacos. Feel free to omit it or substitute it with another cheese of your choice.

Serving Suggestions: Serve the shrimp tacos with extra lime wedges on the side for those who prefer an extra tangy kick. You can also garnish the tacos with additional cilantro leaves for added freshness.
