Tonight's late night light dinner. Southwest-style shrimp salad. Tasty and on the healthy spectrum.
Salad shrimp sautéed with toasted chili and cumin powders, onion, chili garlic oil, sundried tomato pesto, with added chicken stock.  Dressing was a mix of ranch and some of the sauce.  Served on a bed of chopped baby romaine and garnished with crushed corn chips, hard boiled eggs, and avocado.

Did people actually believe Trump during his campaign, or did they just love the permission he gave them to be racist? Trump on loop: “They’re stealing your jobs.” If that were true, why aren’t Americans lining up to take those so-called “stolen” jobs? Every Trump voter needs to see this.
