  1. Na na na this tastes hella nasty never makin this again tastes horrible smh :( ;)
     
  2. Really good! All of the strong flavors blend beautifully into a nice spicy dish. I will definitely make this again - next time I'll make a bigger batch. I may try it with chicken some time as well. I served it over rice. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. this is really a delicious dish which is easy to cook and serve. for variation, i tossed spaghettini noodles... and voila, it was a blast! Ü
     
  4. The sauce was to die for! These were not too hot and I served them with rice. Once the shrimp are peeled and deveined it goes together really fast. Thank you TooAllergic!

So, a bit about me: I love to eat, love to cook and am married to a chef (lucky me). I have recently recovered from Thyroid issues and adult-onset food allergies. My husband and I welcomed our first child into this world in July. I had a hard pregnancy and spent most of it on bedrest. I gained 65 pounds. I've decided to chronicle my weight loss through recipezaar and also include some baby food recipes as I come up with them. My Favorite Cookbook: <li><a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/mycookbook/book/47660">Canning Recipes</a></li> This is from Sharon123--my first zaar aquaintance. I prepared serveral of her "jar" recipes as Christmas gifts and they were such a hit. This is the cookbook that sold me on this site! We even used Sharon123's Viennese Beet Preserves at our wedding reception!
