Enjoy these on a weeknight or lazy Sunday afternoon. They come together in just a few minutes. Though I’ve written this to serve two, it scales easily. —Pinch&Swirl

Arrange half of the tortillas in a single layer over the parchment paper. Divide shredded cheese evenly among the tortillas and top with a second tortilla.
Bake for about 5 minutes, until tortillas are warm and cheese has melted.

To make the spicy slaw, add mayonnaise, sour cream and sriracha to the bottom of a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Add shredded cabbage and toss to coat.

Top each double tortilla shell with 3 shrimp then divide the slaw evenly among the tacos. Add a sprig of cilantro to each taco if desired. Serve.
