Shrimp w/Peppers & Rice

 

 

2 bags of Large 41-60 Cooked shrimp w/tails on, deveined

9 Mini Sweet Peppers, sliced (These come in a bag by Pero)

4 c. cooked white rice (of course you can use brown, or any other kind of pasta you want)

6 tsp. of Lemon Juice

Lemon Pepper Seasoning (NOT salt)

Seasoning Salt

Garlic Salt

1/2 T. Olive Oil (optional)

1/4 onion, chopped (I would have used more but my hubby doesn't like onions)

 

Since the shrimp are pre-cooked I just warmed them up with some hot water.  Drain and place them in a bowl with 3 tsp. of lemon juice & olive oil.  Add the lemon pepper seasoning, seasoning salt and garlic salt to taste.  I used the garlic salt sparingly, and went a bit heavier on the lemon pepper seasoning.  Chop the peppers & onions into slices and mix into shrimp mixture.  Spread on baking sheet and bake at 400 for about 10 minutes.  Place over 1 cup of rice and enjoy!  I then put the other 3 tsp. of lemon juice on top of mine, this is an optional step.

Pineapple fluff:

I didn't get a picture of it this time, but next time I will. 

1/2 c. crushed pineapple in 100% juice (drained slightly)
1/2 c. light whipped topping
1-2 packets of Equal (optional)
Mix together, chill & eat.  I didn't even bother to chill it, I ate it as soon as I mixed it, but either way is probably good.  I added the Equal b/c to me it wasn't sweet enough w/o it, but you may like it w/o the Equal. Yummy sweet treat.
