Louisiana BBQ Shrimp. I have a feeling I am going to be making this dish all summer. It's just that good, and super easy. It's going to be a scorcher on the East coast this weekend, I hope to find myself in lots of air conditioned rooms. Louisiana BBQ Shrimp 1 lb. deveined, peeled shrimp 3-5 strips bacon, cut into small pieces 1/4 cup green pepper, chopped 1/4 - 1/2 cup white onion, chopped 1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 2 teaspoons creole seasoning (whichever you prefer) 1 tablespoon flour 3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth In large saucepan, cook bacon pieces until just about crisp. Remove and let excess grease drip onto paper towel. Add green pepper & onion to pan and saute until halfway cooked. The sauce gets it's smoky bacon flavor from reusing the bacon fat to saute the vegetables and shrimp.

I know I'm late in the game but I just started Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Who has read it? A Birthday at the Beach with some Spicy Prawns in Garlic Sauce. The beach has always been a special get away in our relationship. There was a first weekend away together to Cannon Beach, Oregon in the beginning. A birthday proposal @ Pacific Beach, Washington a couple years later.

Countless returns to Pacific Beach for any possible long weekend we could find after. And the past five years spring break on the beaches of Cabo in Mexico have become a needed renewal to get through the end of year of busy teaching & principaling schedules. When we need to reconnect we often plan a trip to the beach. And a holiday birthday with a guaranteed 3 day weekend hadn't rolled around in a few years but this year for 11-11-11 it did and what better excuse to plan a get away than all of those ones tied up in another double digit birthday.

We did wait until the last minute as we tend to do, but we got lucky and found a good deal on a simple little cottage in Cannon Beach. We headed out Friday after a quick jog on the UPS track. We picked up our meal essentials Recipe: Robyn Webb’s Malaysian Shrimp. New here?

Michael and I talk all the time about how being married and eating together has changed the foods we eat. For instance, I didn’t eat much in the way of potatoes, hardly ever bought red meat, and had NEVER cooked steak of any kind before we were married. Now, potatoes find their way into our menu once every week or two and one of my favorite meals we’ve discovered together is a sort of steak stir-fry.

Michael, on the other hand, never really ever ate fish. Not that he didn’t like fish, he just never really ate it. Now, he really likes tilapia and shrimp (he can’t get enough of our cajun fish sandwiches and shrimp po’boys). Because I love fish so much, and I’m always looking to expand our seafood recipe repertoire, I hunted down this REALLY easy method for cooking tilapia. After eating this for dinner, Michael said it was the best fish he’d ever eaten. Now, I know it looks like fried fish. One of the beauties of fish is that it cooks very quickly.

The noodle got its name from the way it looks as its shape resembles that of a rat’s tail. Loh shi fun is white and semi-transparent, and is made mainly from rice flour and corn flour. It is also smooth in texture. The noodle may be stir fried or served in soup, but the most common method is to serve it in a claypot.

Yes, it is perfect food when you're feeling poorly - but I'd have to look on painfully at my cousins chomping their fried chicken wings with grubby, oily fingers.

Actually, you can pretty much use any ingredient(s) you like - mushrooms, fish slices/chunks, squids, whatever floats your boat. There are chunks of fish buried in there, somewhere!
