Crispy Fried Shrimp {six ways}
As a kid who grew up eating frozen fish sticks at least once a week, and loving them I might add….imagine my delight when I was introduced to frozen battered shrimp. Oh my word. What a treat. Well….that was then, and these from scratch Crispy Fried Shrimp are definitely NOW.

Buffalo Shrimp
We were gifted 7 pounds of fresh-off-the-boat Georgia shrimp a month or two back (thanks to my mom & dad in-law). I froze them in one pound packs so they would thaw quickly when we had a shrimp hankering. On this particular day, I couldn’t get enough of these Buffalo Shrimp. They were too tasty not to share.

Broccoli Cheese Casserole {Weight Watchers}
Each winter I find myself gravitating towards healthier recipe options. Likely due to overeating during the holidays and less outdoor activity than during the warmer months. Nonetheless, here I am again digging through my recipe archives to find the best tasting lower calorie recipes to share with you. This lightened up Broccoli Cheese Casserole is light on calories but just as yummy as any full fat version I’ve had in the past.

Baked Broccoli Bacon Cheddar Bites {…of love!}
Baked Broccoli Bacon Cheddar Bites I asked Shelby for some recipe inspiration. Perhaps something she had enjoyed recently in a restaurant that she’d like to see recreated. Just so happens she had visited her local watering hole the night before and apparently the Broccoli Cheddar Bites hit the spot. That was good enough for me to begin some recipe research.

Parmesan Crusted Homemade Fish Sticks
Parmesan Crusted Homemade Fish Sticks I grew up in a very small New England town in southern New Hampshire. There was a large Catholic population which meant every Friday night was fish night in most households. And while some of my friends grumbled, I begged to be invited for dinner in hopes they’d be serving fish sticks and French fries. Loved them. Please tell me I’m not alone on this one.

Shrimp Po-Boy {Oh Boy!}
Shrimp Po Boy. Oh Boy! The words ‘Fried Shrimp’ drifted through the office the other day. I could hear the excitement build, as one by one people shared their love of fried shrimp. Boy wouldn’t I love a nice big plate of succulent fried shrimp. Better yet, wouldn’t I love a nice big Shrimp Po-Boy.

Italian Stuffed Mushrooms
I have always loved mushrooms. Raw. Cooked. Stuffed. In Stuffing. In fact, my very first (and only…to date) contribution to a cook book, was a little piece on Mushrooms. Mind you I was 13 and my culinary skills were….non-existent. I plan to share more about this fabulous family cookbook in the near future, but for now I’ll focus on these Italian Stuffed Mushrooms.
