      Cook the Shrimp: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.

        Prepare the Lime-Chili Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, lime juice, chili powder, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth.

          Assemble the Bowls: In each serving bowl, start with a base of cooked quinoa. Top with diced avocados, cherry tomatoes, cooked shrimp, and a generous spoonful of mango salsa. Drizzle the lime-chili sauce over the top.

            Garnish and Serve: Finish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side for additional zing. Enjoy your Tropical Shrimp & Avocado Bowl!
