1 ear of corn
1 lb cooked shrimp, peeled, deveined and cut in half lengthwise
2 tablespoons diced onions
1 pinch salt
1 pinch cumin
1 pinch chili powder
1 pinch garlic powder
2 ounces goat cheese
½ cup shredded cabbage (we just used romaine lettuce which worked well)
¼ cup salsa verde
8 warm corn tortillas (we ate them with hard shell tacos and they were good too)

1
Remove the husk and silk from your ear of corn, wash it off, wrap it in a paper towel and cook it in the microwave for 3 minutes, then cut the kernels off the cob and set aside.
2
In the meanwhile, saute the onion in about 1 tsp of olive oil (or butter if you'd rather) for about 3 minutes on med-high until opaque.
3
Add the salt, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder and shrimp, stir, cook for 30 seconds, cover and turn over the heat (so that the shrimp warm up, but don't overcook).
4
On each tortilla, spread 1/8 of the goat cheese, top with 1/8 of the shrimp, sprinkle with some corn kernels, top with a little cabbage and spoon about 1 tsp of salsa over the cabbage.
5
Serve with more salsa on the side.
