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.

Grilled Herb Shrimp
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! Trust me, you need fresh herbs in your life. I’ll be using them A LOT in my summertime posts – because fresh herbs make everything taste extra fabulous!

Shrimp and Noodle Salad with Ginger Dressing
I’d be in such heaven right now if I hadn’t sworn myself off carbs until around the 10th of never. I’m a sucker for any Asian inspired salad, and this one has all of the ingredients that tickle me pink – shrimp, pasta, cilantro, and a salty teriyaki dressing. But after the Molten Brownie Pudding incident from a few days back – well, no carbs for me.

Shrimp Scampi with Green Onions and Orzo
Today’s disclaimer: this recipe contains butter. Real butter. Lots and lots of creamy, delicious butter.
If you’re the type that avoids this ingredient for whatever crazy reason, like if staying in the good graces of your favorite cardiologist is a priority in your life, then just keep on walkin’. This ain’t the dish for you. But, if you could give a rat’s pa’toot about what your neighborhood heart doc has to say, and if your personal trainer needs more hours…well then stick around, friend (get it? STICK around?)!

A Fat Tuesday “Two-Fer”
I’ve never been to Mardis Gras or New Orleans, but by now you probably know that where there’s an occasion to celebrate with food, you can pretty much count me in. Take yesterday for instance: both Valentine’s Day AND Chinese New Year? I was pretty much falling all over myself with excitement! It was ugly! [...]

How Appetizing!
We’re nearly through the Holidays! Hooray for us, we’ve almost made it! The endless party conga is about to call it quits.
And I have to tell you, I’m so darned tired of cooking. Tired of cleaning the kitchen and loading / unloading the dishwasher too. At present, I’m staring at a dried up, once-gorgeous-but-now-bordering-on-pathetic tree that needs to be taken down ASAP.

Panko Crusted Shrimp Cakes
So we’re clear: I don’t share this recipe with just anyone.
But maybe it’s because it’s December 24th, and all of my Christmas cards are finally done and outta here. Maybe it’s because all of the gifts are wrapped and I don’t have to pull an all-nighter for the first time in 5 years.

Shrimp Fried Rice
Even though I consider myself to be one of Sendik’s greatest fans, there are some days when I just plain don’t feel like putting on lipstick and going to the store. I hope this doesn’t lower your opinion of me. While on most days, I do so adore going grocery shopping, sometimes I just don’t have it in me.
Yesterday was one of those days… I just. Couldn’t. Do it.
