Thai Coconut Shrimp

Adapted from "The Gracious Pantry"

Ingredients (makes 6 servings):

2 pounds large, frozen shrimp, tail off
1 (14 ounce) can light coconut milk
1 pound fresh sugar snap peas
3 green onions, diced (I deleted these but you don't have to)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
4 teaspoons curry powder
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
 

Directions:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a large pot or pan, cover and bring to a boil.
  2. Once you have a nice rolling boil, remove the lid and continue to cook over medium to medium-high heat.
  3. It’s done cooking when the shrimp are cooked through and the snap peas are cooked to your liking.
  4. Wonderful served over brown rice, or spaghetti squash (for Paleo peeps) or rice noodles.

Slacker!

I am ashamed and saddened that my last post was almost a YEAR ago!  WTH!  Well, some people have asked me to please update my blog so I am going to do just that.  I only have about 1743649101 recipes to upload. 

I have been cooking and baking and smoothie-ing and taking pictures, I just have not actually put them here.  Don't say I didn't warn you.  Here goes!
