Spicy Grilled Shrimp
"This is my favorite grilled shrimp recipe that I found from Allrecipes. I'm posting it here since I don't spend much time on that site any longer. I COMPLETELY OMIT THE SALT FROM THIS RECIPE WHEN I MAKE IT...I don't feel it needs it! I also double the garlic for my family's tastes."

I love to try new recipes and often try so many new recipes that I forget about all the great ones I've already made. My focus in cooking is to cook healthy and lower in fat without compromising the taste of the food.
