My husband likes to eat healthy. REALLY healthy. I grew up in a small farming community in Maysville, NC & my Grandma cooked just about everything with salt pork 
It’s not all that good for you but tastes good. It was just the way it was and I am proud of my country roots; it makes me who I am. My husband, along with working in a few different restaurants, have inspired me to be more health conscious which is a good thing for both of us (although there are some recipes I MUST use salt pork in!).
Since we live on the coast of NC, there is no shortage of seafood. We enjoy these healthy shrimp tacos regularly, & I hope you enjoy them just as much as we do. Oh, & don’t forget: Support your neighbors & buy your seafood LOCALLY. NEVER buy imported shrimp!
