Camarones del Diablo (the Devil's Shrimp)

Makes 12 appetizers

Lettuce Bowls (iceberg lettuce leaves)

Mango-Jalapeno Salsa
1 mango, seeded and diced small
1 large tomato or 2 roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 small white onion, diced small
1 jalapeno pepper, stemmed, seeded and diced small
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ c minced cilantro
Juice of one lime
Salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:
Combine all of the salsa ingredients in a non-reactive bowl and taste. Add more jalapeno, lime juice and salt and pepper if desired. Set aside. Have the salsa and lettuce cups available for plating.
Pat shrimp dry and place in a bowl. Stir in the chili powder, cumin and garlic powder to coat evenly and set aside.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and swirl to distribute. Stir in the shrimp along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté until the shrimp are pink on the outside and just barely opaque in the middle, about 2 minutes per side.
Remove the shrimp from the pan. Add the jelly and chili-garlic sauce to the pan. Heat until the jelly has melted and the sauce has thickened a little. Return the shrimp to the pan and heat through for no more than a minute.

Divide the shrimp between the lettuce cups and top with a spoonful of the mango salsa.
Breakfast Burrito
Makes one burrito
1 egg
2-3 Tbsp grated cheese
1 flour tortilla
2 Tbsp salsa (homemade or purchased)

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. If desired brush with a little oil--never use a spray oil on a non-stick pan!
Whisk the egg in a separate bowl and pour it into the pan. Immediately cover with the flour tortilla. Cook for about 1 minute and turn tortilla out of the pan upside down onto a plate or cutting board (egg facing up). Sprinkle with the cheese and top with the salsa.
Turn two opposite sides of the burrito toward one another about 1" in. Hold in place while you roll up the burrito beginning at one end. Wrap in a napkin or foil wrapper and enjoy!
