Tasty Shrimp Fajitas for the Parkinson’s Palate

This great dish is modified from a yummy recipe I saw online from Alyssa Rivers the blogger behind The Recipe Critic. It’s a tasty dish for anyone but also packed with great spices to add flavor (in case your sniffer is not smelling as well as it used to), colorful vegetables and healthy fats. Best of all you don’t have to eat different than your guests because this is wonderfully healthy for everyone.
