Sweet coconut milk and spicy green curry paste are blended with shrimp and basil to create a comforting Thai curry dish. Serve over Jasmine rice (not included in nutritional info) to soak up the sauce and you have a complete dinner!
Grilled shrimp on skewers seasoned with cumin, garlic and finished with fresh squeezed lime juice and cilantro. I use my grill all summer long, and since we LOVE Cilantro Lime Shrimp, I adapted for the grill.
The perfect light summer salad, made with sweet summer corn, grape tomatoes, garden herbs and chilled steamed lobster. Serve this for two as a main dish salad or for four as a first course as pictured here. I revived this one from the archives since this is the perfect time of year to make it.
Lobster rolls scream summer to me and when you want an extra special lunch, this is it! Chunks of fresh chilled lobster tossed with celery, shallots, chives, light mayonnaise and a little lemon zest served on a hot dog bun.
This makes an elegant appetizer or a delicious lunch for four. I love using dry Adobo to season shrimp salad, but if you don't have Adobo, any seasoned salt would work great. I always keep Greek yogurt on hand to lighten up recipes that require mayonnaise.
Almost every time my sister in law Jamie comes to visit, she brings a cooler of fresh seafood from the Gulf. You see, she lives up in the Panhandle of Florida, and has access to some of the best, freshest fish and seafood that I have ever tasted.
Shrimp, tomatoes, cilantro, red onion and lime are combined to create a zesty protein rich salsa. Bring this to a party and watch it disappear! I love making salsa, and often combine whatever I have on hand to make an appetizer no one can resist.

Shrimp cocktail is fine, but when I want something special, I like to have my shrimp ceviche style! Tossed with avocados, cucumbers, tomatoes, cilantro and fresh lime juice... and sometimes I add a serrano pepper for zing. Served in martini glasses, it's the perfect appetizer for any special occasion and perfect for the Holidays.
I love this recipe. It is so fast and easy yet so filling and rich. It is a company worthy dish on a weeknight time budget.
