A couple of easy to make recipes to share from two of my good friends. SHRIMP CREOLE LEMON SURPRISE 2 medium green peppers chopped 1 cup finely chopped celery 1 ½ cups chopped onion 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 tsp snipped parsley 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp cayenne red pepper 2 bay leaves crushed 1 cup butter 1 can (15 oz.) tomato sauce – 1 cup water 1 lb fresh cleaned raw shrimp 3 cups hot cooked rice 1 jar Lemon Curd 1 container of Cool Whip (16 oz.) 1 container of Lemon Yogurt INSTRUCTIONS (This recipe was shared to me by Bonnie Lem, a Past Chamber Board Chair) Saute onion, celery, green pepper and garlic in butter until onion is tender Remove from heat; stir in tomato sauce, water and seasonings Simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes (add water if needed) Stir in shrimp. Heat to boiling. Cover and cook over medium heat (10-20 minutes) or until shrimp are pink and tender. Serve over rice. (This recipe was given to me many years ago, quick easy and really good) 8 MOMENTUM INSTRUCTIONS Whisk together curd and yogurt and then fold in Cool Whip. Serve with fresh fruit pound cake or angel food cake. Simple, easy and delicious and when served in a wine goblet with fruit, it makes a beautiful dessert or treat for brunch. Easy recipes and both are exceptional.
