    Sometimes a girl gets real lucky, like I did tonight!  I had this jumbo shrimp that I needed to cook.  I wanted something with a spicy kick to it, something that was quick and something that was easy.  I wasn't sure what I would do but when I got home, I opened up Pinterest and what was the very first pin I saw?  Yes, it was this New Orlean's BBQ Shrimp recipe.  I clicked on the photo and it took me to Epicurious.

    I went to my cupboard and made sure I had all the ingredients and got busy making my dinner!  The only thing I didn't have was some crusty bread to go with, but that in all honesty wasn't a terrible thing for me since I don't need those carbs anyway!

    This was certainly a yummy shrimp dish and I will definitely be making it again.  It had the right amount of heat for me and was so easy to do!  The only thing I did differently was use creole seasoning instead of cajun.  I'm not sure how much different the two are but I've a feeling not that much!  If you love a little spicy saucy heat with your shrimp, this is definitely a dish to try!

      This looks fabulous! As much as I don't need the carbs either, it looks like that sauce would be perfect with some nice crusty bread to soak it up!

        I'm sure it (the bread) would have been awesome to have...but it just wasn't planned for. lol. Guaranteed that next time there will be some crusty bread to go with! 🙂
