\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

August and September have been busy months around here, and so Jeff has been working\u00a0a lot.<\/em> This means I am able to cook some nights on my own, just for me – things I know he would never eat, and know I will love.<\/p>\n

One of these things recently was shrimp. I originally was going to make polenta, but when I saw grits at Trader Joe’s, I knew that is what I had to make. Incorporate the vegetables I had in the house, and I had a feast!<\/p>\n

Recipe:<\/strong><\/p>\n

grits<\/strong> (make enough servings according to the box)
\nshrimp<\/strong> (I made five, but if you’re making for more than one, obviously allot for that)
\n1\/2 container mushrooms<\/strong>
\n1\/2 eggplant<\/strong>
\n1-2 tomatoes<\/strong>
\n1 lemon
\n<\/strong>garlic
\nolive oil
\narugula
\n<\/strong>almond<\/strong> slices
\n<\/strong>parm cheese<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not pictured: making grits to box’s directions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Start with your veggies – slice ’em however you want. I cubed mine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Put some garlic in a hot skillet with olive oil.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then add your veggies, and sautee roughly ten minutes (maybe less, depending on how you like ’em.)<\/p>\n

Not pictured: sauteeing the shrimp. Don’t be like me, folks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Serve shrimp with grits and\u00a0parmesan cheese, a lemon slice, your vegetables, and arugula with sliced almonds.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s it – relatively quick, definitely simple dinner.<\/p>\n

How do you make shrimp and grits? What is your favorite shrimp dish?<\/strong><\/p>\n
