Honey Lime Shrimp

Honey Lime Shrimp

serves 2

1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup olive oil
2 T honey
juice of one small lime, or half a large lime (2-3 T)
zest of one small lime, or half a large lime
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

1.) In a large ziploc bag, combine all the marinade ingredients. When everything is well-combined, add the shrimp, squeeze as much air as possible out of the bag, and close it up. Place it in the fridge.

2.) Let the shrimp marinate for 30-60 minutes, flipping the bag around once or twice during that time, so that all the shrimp stay evenly covered in the marinade.

3.) When you’re ready to cook, take the shrimp out of the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; there is no need to add any oil or butter to the pan, as the marinade has enough oil in it to keep the shrimp from sticking to the pan. (If you would prefer to use the grill for these, you can thread them onto skewers and toss them on the grill at this point.)

4.) Add your shrimp to the pan in a single layer, making sure they are not too crowded; you can always cook them in more than one batch. Let them cook on one side for about a minute, until they curl up and start to turn pink. Flip them over, and cook for another 30 seconds or so, until the shrimp are opaque. Remove from the pan, and serve immediately!

Shrimp: they’re the fruit of the sea!



(Some have suggested adding tequila to the marinade.)

Salted Caramel Jello Shots

Salted Caramel Jello Shots


Salted Caramel Jello Shots (Makes 12 shots)

Plastic shot glasses (I buy these from Amazon)
1 envelope Knox gelatin
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup evaporated milk
2-3 drops yellow food coloring
2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
1 envelope
Land o Lakes Caramel hot chocolate (Regular would do just fine if you can't find caramel. These come in individual packets and most grocery stores carry them)
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butterscotch schnapps
(For a stronger shot use caramel flavored vodka)

For a kid friendly, non-alcoholic version just use cold water instead of butterscotch schnapps or vodka.

1. Mix your 1/2 cup water with your envelope of caramel hot chocolate in a medium sized sauce pan. Whisk it to make sure all the chocolate is combined. Add the 1/2 cup of evaporated milk, whisk again.

2. Sprinkle your gelatin on top and let it sit a few minutes. Turn on low/medium heat and mix the gelatin until all is combined.

3. Add 1/4 cup sugar and simmer slightly until sugar is combined. Add your food coloring until you get the caramel color desired. I used two drops. Add 1 teaspoon sea salt. Pour in your 1/2 cup of butterscotch schnapps.

4. Pour caramel jello in shot glasses and let set for at least 2 hours. Top each shot with a pinch of sea salt before serving.

Crockpot Four Bean Chili

This is the easiest, laziest and cheapest recipe of all time, not to mention it’s the perfect comfort food after a long cold day.

Crockpot Four Bean Chili

Ingredients

  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1 small zucchini, grated
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (OR 2 large fresh tomatoes diced)
  • 2 cans black beans, drained (OR 3 cups cooked fresh black beans)
  • 1 can pinto beans, drained (OR 1 1/2 cups cooked fresh pinto beans)
  • 1 can kidney beans, drained (OR 1 1/2 cups cooked fresh kidney beans)
  • 1 can garbanzo beans, drained (OR 1 1/2 cups cooked fresh garbanzo beans)
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn kennels
  • 3 tbs cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 6oz can tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup water
  • salt, to taste

Method

Step 1

Throw all the ingredients in a crock pot and mix thoroughly. Cook on low for at least four hours, stirring occasionally (every hour or so).

Step 2

Alternatively, if you don't have a crock pot and you have an hour or so to watch the pot, you can sauté the vegetables and add the rest of the ingredients. Cook on medium heat, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
