Fajitas are a way of life. Growing up, I knew it was going to be a good end to the day if my mom was cooking up a batch of fajitas for dinner. A sizzling hot plate of chicken fajitas with crispy peppers, onions and mushrooms was always a great dinner to be had in… Continue reading Sheet Pan Salmon Fajitas

Bang Bang Shrimp Bowls
If you look through ANY food boards on Pinterest, you'll be inundated with copycat 'bang bang' shrimp recipes. What is that, you ask? Well---I actually don't know.

Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps

My main seafood purchases are shrimp and catfish, and I do that sparingly. I'm talking a once-a-month meal. So imagine my surprise when my local grocer… Continue reading Shrimp & Scallop Divan
Pesto Shrimp & Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner
Since our epic snow storm busted over the course of 24 hours, I found myself with nothing to do this weekend. I cleaned. I played around with some makeup. I made chex mix. I entertained the cats. That was all before 9:24 a.m. yesterday. What the heck was I going to do for the rest… Continue reading Pesto Shrimp & Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner
