    Super easy shrimp pad thai can be ready in about 5 minutes! This is a fast weeknight meal. Add some fresh cilantro, limes and chopped peanuts! So Good! | ethnicspoon.com #sponsored #ad

    Ugh, the daily dinner dilemma!

    We sigh, scratch our heads, cross our arms and  hang our heads. Sometimes we just pick up the phone and order in. Other times we reluctantly get in the car and drive somewhere. Tonight I am making a super easy Pad Thai with shrimp recipe that can be ready in no time at all.

    Dinner in no time

    For starters, you can prepare Tasty Bite products in little or no time. Seriously! You can microwave the pouch, and all it takes is 60 seconds. Or, you can place the pouch in boiling water, and it takes 5 minutes. That's it! You can have a yummy dinner with an ethnic flair in very little time.  I tell you it made my super easy Pad Thai with shrimp a piece of cake.

    You see, Tasty Bite is made with natural ingredients. The product does not contain any GMO's. Now, isn't that a compelling reason to make Tasty Bite a new staple in your pantry? The variety of products is another reason to really consider adding Tasty Bite to your grocery cart. There is Thai, Indian, and other Asian flavors to try. Be adventurous! And be glad that thanks to Tasty Bite, dinner just got a little easier, not to mention interesting.

    Tasty Bite and I recently met in the international food aisle of my local grocery store.

    It's bright yellow pouch was easy to spot; it was asking me to take it home and give it a try. I am so glad I did.

    Tasty Bite brings the flavors of Southeast Asia to my kitchen, and helps me fulfill my culinary cravings. By now, I hope you are wondering how to incorporate Tasty Bite products into your everyday life. Don't fret, it's so easy, because you can serve the products as a side dish, or a main meal. You can add to it, and make it your own, or not!

    I decided to mix things up a bit, that's what food bloggers do, so I used the Pad Thai and added shrimp, lime slices, and peanuts. This only took 5 minutes, because while the pouch boiled in the water, I stir fried the shrimp, cut the lime, chopped the peanuts, and cut up some cilantro. 5 minutes is all it took to get a delicious ethnic meal in a bowl. By the way, if you don't have even 5 minutes, you can toss the pouch in the microwave and it will be ready in about 60 seconds.

    Finally, I took my first bite, and all of a sudden I was magically transported to a time when I was inside a tuk tuk bouncing along the bumpy road. I was on my way to eat a bowl of Pad Thai at a local roadside stand. The colorful sights, the sounds of traffic, all added to the experience. When I opened my eyes, I was still at my kitchen table with a bowl of easy Pad Thai with shrimp in front of me. Oh well... It just goes to show that Tasty Bite's authentic taste can work magic for your dinner.
