Zuppa Di Gamberi (My Shrimp Soup)
"This is simply delicious and smells so good. I've changed the original recipe enough to make this one my own by now. I'm not always able to find Fish Stock so I use Vegetable Stock. I add a lot of Old Bay for extra seasoning but that's because I think Old Bay makes everything better. I'm not putting a measurement down for it because I add it to taste."

What a delicious soup! I love shrimp and this one looked so good with the shrimp. Even my DH who doesn't care for seafood loved it, so I was thrilled! I actually used chicken stock for mine and it worked out just fine. I will be making this again, you can count on that! Thanks!

<p>I LOVE to cook...it is very relaxing to me. A big THANKS to all the cooks on this web site for sharing their recipes and always giving me wonderful meals to make. <br /><br />Our pugs, Norman and Otis are the biggest foodies we will ever know. <br /><br />I'm another one of "those people" that read cookbooks like novels. I'm forcing myself not to buy anymore! because I don't really cook from them I just like to read them. I prefer using my cookbooks and recipes online because they take up less space and are always accessible. <br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></p>
