    Someone did you a huge favor. Shrimp are just about the most calorie friendly, high in protein food there is.

    I too love them grilled.

    If they are big I would clean and shell them, use a small knife and put a slit in the middle, skewer them on fresh asparagus and grill them. Serve them with either cocktail sauce or salsa.

    Also just grilled with Franks Original Hot Sauce (tastes like hot wings), serve with celery sticks.

    I keep some cooked ones in my freezer all the time to put in soup and stir frys. Really simple for fast receipes. So I would boil, clean and shell a big batch and divide it into receipe sized bags and throw it back in the freezer.
