Shrimp & the Fam

It's been awhile since I made one of these super easy shrimp packets. I'd forgotten how yummy they are.

Tonight's dinner...

Shelly's Greek Shrimp Packets

7 Raw Shrimp, peeled & deveined and tails removed
4 Artichoke Hearts, chopped
8 Grape Tomatoes, halved
10 Kalamata Olives, pitted and chopped
2 cloves Garlic, sliced
1 teaspoon White Wine
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Greek Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
a few twists of Black Pepper

Peel and devein shrimp. Ingredients listed are for one packet multiply it for how many packets you are making. Place all ingredients in center of a piece of heavy duty foil (if you are using the $1 store stuff double it)

Fold the foil over and seal each packet. BBQ 15 minutes in covered grill.

Open packets carefully (steam burns are not fun) and mix with a fork lightly before serving.


Highlights of the day:

* Mum and I met my sis and my niece at North County Fair (local mall) they are in town for just a few days for a birthday party so we grabbed some lunch and coffee and hung out a bit.

I spent a little too much $. Damn Nordstrom's Half-yearly Sale. I bought a super cute puffy vest for the snow. I'm going snowboarding for the first time ever when the season begins. So I couldn't pass it up. How's that for justification ;) I also bought naughty panties. It was a WOW moment because not only did I go in Victoria's Secret for the first time I bought those panties in size XS. Crazy!?! But get this even though I was picking up the smallest size they carry I still felt like I was in the wrong store and was waiting for one of the employees to say, "Ummmm I'm sorry we don't have anything for you here." The emotional side of this journey takes waaaaaaaayyyyyy longer than the physical side. I'm still working on this head stuff and hmmm I'm also working on finding someone other than me to enjoy my purchases.

* Sleep. I actually got about 4 hours last night. That's darn good for me. I swear I'm part vampire.

* Watch for some yummy food porn this week I have been out of the kitchen for too long and I have a list of things to try.
