I bought a huge bag of frozen shrimp, I thought it was on sale for 5 dollars but I messed up and it was actually 20! Ugh, and the only thing I ever eat it with is pasta and it's getting old.


Anyone have any good recipes that I can have frozen shrimp with?!

    Shish kaboobs, with hot dog sausages (I love this uncured, 100% beef, hormone-free ones from Trader Joe's), fresh pineapple, orange peppers/peppers, onion and throw on the grill. Marinade if you like with something (teriyaki sauce?).

    Shrimp fried rice; I'd use brown rice to be healthier, butter (you can omit), teriyaki or soy sauce (light sodium, I get a gluten-free organic type but it's up to you), egg or egg white, bean sprouts, peas/corn/green beans added, sometimes I throw in all sorts of veggies to make it more healthy like broccoli, etc.
