Happy 4th of July! This is the 10th holiday in a row I've had to work. I'm not complaining, though. Not only do I get holiday pay (yipee!) but I'm not really a fan of smaller holidays like this one. I'll soak in the fireworks and patriotism in my drive home tonight---I don't need a… Continue reading Gulf Coast Cobb Salad

Pesto Shrimp & Roasted Tomatoes Pasta
We're in for a doozy today. It's severe weather season in Oklahoma, and it definitely feels like. There's a mugginess in the air that's only felt this time of year. The National Weather Service has put out outlook maps for today and the tornado potential. I love this time of year, but it's always a… Continue reading Pesto Shrimp & Roasted Tomatoes Pasta
Cajun Shrimp Caesar Salad
Hola, from the land of the living! It's been radio silence on my end lately, and for that I apologize. I've been busy with work, and most importantly--I TOOK A VACATION! A mini-vacation, but hey, it still counts. Rob and I hit the road and snuck to the Land of Enchantment for a few days… Continue reading Cajun Shrimp Caesar Salad

The dish still tasted okay, but the texture threw me for a loop. Fast forward to… Continue reading Creamy Herb & Shrimp Pasta
Shrimp & Catfish Creole
Today is my engagement-versary, if that's a thing. I can't believe it has been 3 whole years since Rob and I got engaged...and nearly 2 years since we got married. It's been a whirlwind these last few years. A crazy, wonderful whirlwind. Since I'm thinking about our engagement, it's made my mind wander to our… Continue reading Shrimp & Catfish Creole
Shrimp & Scallop Divan
Seafood is an extravagant purchase where I come from. We're only about 1,000 miles away from the closest coast and good, cheap seafood is really hard to come by. 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
Tandoori Shrimp
I haven't quite mastered the art of the grill pan. A wedding gift we got last year, my grill pan has seen many an attempt at mimicking the real thing---a charcoal grill. Since I can't grill to save my life, I thought the grill pan would help out. If you're unaware, a grill pan is… Continue reading Tandoori Shrimp
