Low Country Boil
I’m bringing up this recipe today because it is one of my favorite summertime meals, and I want you all to have access to it before we run out of summer. I make it for the DamFam, party of five – but I’ve also served it for dinner parties of up to 10 or so folks. One of my college roomies served it to a crowd of 50 people at her rehearsal dinner. I absolutely love Low Country Boil. It’s the quintessential southern meal!

Spicy Shrimp and Grits
Yes, grits! Don’t run away! If you’ve never had them before, I think you’re going to like them. I LOVE THEM. If midwestern comfort food is mashed potatoes, then southern comfort food has got to be grits.

Grilled Shrimp and Sausage Skewers with Smoky Paprika Glaze
I can’t believe I haven’t written about this recipe yet; it’s one of the best dinners I made last summer. I think when I finally got around to blogging about it, summer was nearly over and I decided I would keep the recipe in my back pocket for another summer day. Well, summer is here! Shrimp are on sale! This is a recipe whose time has come.

Gnocchi with Shrimp, Asparagus, & Pesto
I clipped this recipe back in September because its headline caught me: “FAVORITE 20-MINUTE RECIPE #7″ is what it said, just above the recipe title. Color me happy, I thought. Who couldn’t use a 20 minute recipe?

Shrimp Quesadillas
I was just outside hitting tennis balls to the DamDog, trying to exhaust her before the Great Blizzard of 2011 strikes later on this afternoon. As I lobbed ball after ball, I was going back in forth over what to make for this week’s Fan Mail. Caught between the snow-pocalypse and the Super Bowl, it was a trying decision. But by the time the big game is played on Sunday night, snowmageddon will be a happy memory, so football food won out.

Shrimp with Indian-Spiced Potatoes
I needed a quick, one-pot dinner last night. After school sports and full blown homework have kicked into high gear and I just didn’t have the time to futz around with a complicated meal. This one is so easy to throw together, I ended up having no excuse not to volunteer to schlep four wayward runners home from cross country practice…and toss 50 frisbees to the DamDog…and explain the finer points of long division to my fifth grader.

Chipotle Shrimp Tostadas With Simple Pico De Gallo
There’s a darling Mexican cantina on Pewaukee Lake called Seester’s. It’s a cute little spot with sidewalk dining, just across the street from the public beach. The nice people at Seester’s keep big bowls of fresh water on the sidewalk for all the thirsty dogs that pass by – their owners clutch dripping ice cream cones in one hand and leashes in the other.

Roasted Shrimp & Orzo Salad
I co-hosted a dinner with a girlfriend this past weekend and each guest brought a dish to pass. Some brought appetizers, a few made gorgeous salads – others brought breads, rolls, and plates of bars. It was such a fun way to get together with friends, while sharing the burden of menu planning and food prep. If you’re in the mood to have some friends over but are leary of all the work, I highly recommend this method of hostessing! Most guests are more than happy to contribute to the soiree in one way or another.

Surely by now you’ve planted that herb garden we discussed a couple of weeks back. If you haven’t already planted a few pots — don’t delay, act now! You still have time!
