Seriously, what is not good about perfectly seasoned jumbo shrimp laying on a bed of slaw, avocado, tomato, and jalapeño salsa wrapped with warm corn tortillas and drizzled with a sweet and spicy pineapple-chipotle sauce?

Doesn’t that just make your mouth water?

What makes these tacos extra delicious? The incredible sauce. To make it, I mixed chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, mayo, lime juice and Dole Crushed Pineapple in a food processor until well combined. This sauce comes together in just about 2 minutes and I can already think of multiple dishes you can add it to and make them stand out!
