Welcome to 2019! I am excited to share my favorite posts with you this week!

I have always been a huge fan of pizza! But my go to has always been the thin crust Italian style neopolitan pizza. But, as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, and I had to immediately stop and take a look at this delicious looking Chicago Style Deep Dish!

Raspberry and cream go so well together, especially on a hot summer day! These flavors are so cooling! The introduction of coconut sounds absolutely spectacular.

My wife has been trying to remove dairy from her diet as much as possible. This has lead me to look at recipes that have dairy alternatives in them. The coconut sauce with these spiced green beans could be just the thing to try!

I'm always drawn to something new that I think that my kids just might eat, even if there is fight to get there! They have tried curry and liked it. They always ask if we are having rice with our dinner. So maybe if I put them together?

I didn't realize until this last article, that this week's post was heavy in all things coconut and curry! So why not close it out that way. Coconut shrimp is one of my favorite ways to make and eat shrimp. Add some curry in there, and it's a really good thing going!

Curry Shrimp

Two things I love together in one dish, shrimp and curry! We put this curry dish together with some items we had in the pantry, and it came together pretty easy! For the curry spice, we used the Maharajah blend from Seasonality Spices.


The Recipe:

Curry Shrimp

• 1 Onion - Diced
• 1 Bell Pepper - Diced
• 1 14.5 Ounce Can Diced Tomatoes
• 1 8 Ounce Can Coconut Milk
• 10 to 16 Shrimp - Peeled and Deveined
• 1 Tablespoon Maharajah Blend
• Salt and Pepper
• Rice (Optional)
• Naan Bread
• Olive Oil

Sauté the onions and green bell peppers in olive oil with salt and pepper, until the onions are translucent. Add the diced tomatoes and coconut milk and the Maharajah Blend. Stir to combine. Let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add the shrimp and stir to combine. Let cook for a few minutes, five minutes at most. When the shrimp turn pink, it's ready to eat! 

This can be served over rice if desired. It turned out a little bit soupy, so rice would help soak up some of the extra liquid. The naan bread is a great way to help scoop everything up!

Happy eating!
