You’re gonna love these shrimp tempura summer rolls! Crispy tempura-battered shrimp encased in a tender rice paper wrap, filled with fresh vegetables, herbs, and vermicelli rice noodles. Served with an intensely-flavored, garlic and ginger tahini sauce. I love everything I make, honestly. But then I have my absolute favorites. These…
Not too many people breathing free oxygen dislike shrimp and grits. If there’s anyone out there who doesn’t love this southern classic (for reasons other than allergies, and even then, I’m still skeptical), I want nothing to do with them. Shrimp and grits just go so well together. I’m not…
You’re going to love these lemony buttermilk fried shrimp! My heart breaks for folks who have seafood allergies. No, seriously. I am saddened for you guys. If you could measure seafood allergies by percentage, I myself am 5% allergic. I can eat fish, shellfish, mollusks, etc. The only thing that…
Garlicky Shrimp Scampi over Creamy Parmesan Grits is the ultimate bowl of LOVE! I honestly have no words for how insanely good this is. I just need you to stop whatever it is you’re doing and make this right away. It. Is. AMAZING! Fully adaptable, easily doubled, just damn good.…

If you don't appreciate nor respect the taco, we can't be friends. The taco is the greatest culinary invention ever. It's the cousin of the sandwich. A "shell" that cradles your favorite ingredients, and is eaten with your hands. Everything tastes good in a taco -- even spaghetti (I know...I…
Oh my... Yo... This is just... I can't even... Man, listen...
Every time I visit Wegmans -- my holy grail food shopping mecca, I am guaranteed to overspend and buy stuff that isn't even on my list. Something I always get, that's never on my list is their big ass container of pre-washed mixed greens in the produce section. It's a…
