I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Seasoned Shrimp Spaghetti

This seasoned shrimp spaghetti is super simple to make for a speedy weeknight supper! 


Ingredients:
300 g - 56/65 shrimp
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp seafood seasoning (Gone Fishing, Old Bay, etc)
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach leaves
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 tsp minced garlic
1/3 cup olive oil
2 tbsps lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
12 oz spaghetti
additional olive oil

Toss the shrimp with 1 tbsp olive oil and your choice of seafood seasoning. Marinate for 30 minutes.


Start cooking the spaghetti.

Now heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a skillet and on medium heat toss the tomatoes, cooking about 4 minutes until they start to burst. You could puncture each tomato to help them along. Then add garlic for 1 minute. Add the peas and spinach and cook 2 minutes. Finally add the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm .


In another skillet heat 1 tbsp olive oil and when there are about 4 minutes cooking time left for the spaghetti start the shrimp. Toss them in the hot oil and cook until they are pink.


Combine the veggies with the drained spaghetti. You may want to add more olive oil to the mix.


And serve topped with the beautifully seasoned shrimp.


Cooking time takes less than 30 minutes!


Serves 4
