CAMARONES CON CREMA (MEXICAN SHRIMP IN CREAM)
This is one of my favorite Mexican shrimp meals to make. Everyone gobbles it up. Best served with rice, about 3 to 4 cups cooked. I like to sprinkle mine with Cojita cheese and cilantro also.

CAMARONES AL TEQUILA
I had this wonderful dish at a Mexican restaurant in Olympia, WA. It is so flavorful and delicious. I searched for a recipe and found several but none that use sundried tomatoes like we had it at the restaurant. It is only 4 WW points before the tortillas or rice. I like to just eat it with a fork and use a tortilla to just sop of the juices. (A 6-inch fliour tortilla is 2 points).
