This was the main course on New Year’s Eve in my home. I have so many shrimp recipes, did I really need another one? The answer was yes as it was different from any I have already posted. Then it was one of Ina’s recipes, I have all 9 cookbooks of hers, will I ever … Continue reading
I can never get too much of this favorite seafood and I like it cooked all kinds of different ways. From shrimp cocktail, a bisque, stir-fry or in a rich creamy pasta dish. I like it grilled, roasted or even boiled in a good broth. Once in awhile I do like to indulge in a … Continue reading
This is another delicious Chinese recipe from Weight Watcher’s and a perfect dish to serve after the Thanksgiving holiday. Like so many others I overate but totally enjoyed every minute of it. I did change this dish by substituting snow peas for the original sugar snap peas. I just happen to like that veggie better. … Continue reading
