September 12th, 2009This is some goood stuff! Great for a quick meal, an impromptu get-together or just to impress your friends and family.
1 pound of uncooked large shrimp, peeled and deviened
2 TBSP. good quality olive oil
3 cloves of garlic, sliced
1 TBSP lemon juice
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
2 TBSP minced fresh flat leaf parsley
Cooked Pasta or Rice
In a large skillet saute the shrimp in the olive oil for about 3 minutes. Add the garlic slices, lemon juice, cumin and salt. Cook and stir until the shrimp turn pink. Stir in the parsley.
Remove the shrimp from the pan. Place pasta or rice on plates, Spoon the juice from the shrimp onto the pasta or rice, then place shrimp on top.
I served it with a side of roasted asparagus…and oh my goodness…it was wonderful. Makes me really glad that I decided against Fastin this week. You could do any side, but I think it calls for something light, broccoli, roasted squash, etc.

Welcome To Eden
April 7th, 2009Eden Organics that is. I am trying my best to steer away from all of the over-processed foods. I am trying to go as natural as I can for many different reasons. Health being the number one. I think that we have come to a time that we put so many chemicals in our bodies that we are just asking for trouble. Yes, it is easier to buy foods that way. Yes, it is cheaper to buy foods laden with chemicals that have been processed. Yes, they will last until your great grandchildren’s children die. But what do they do to you and your body? What do they do to the health of our children? It is scary. Our bodies should have so many preservatives in them at this point that we should be preserved for generations to come.
