Update on the Shrimp

Well, I really wanted to make spinach and rice but I was in a hurry and totally forgot to get fresh spinach, on top of that we'd had rice just the night before so I thought I'd make something different for a change and broke out the package of Quick Grits I had sitting in my pantry......

I've heard of shrimp and grits before, so why not try it right? But instead of just leaving the way they are, I had to put my own little spin on it. Of course, I can never make something just the way the package says it and leave it that way. It's always something with me.

Ok, well I started measuring out the grits and water, just like its described on the package, but once I got the grits cooking, I ended up putting some saffron in it, to give it a beautiful, deep yellow color, a dab of butter and a sprinkle of parmesan....... OH YUM! That tasted delicious.....

Instead of the spinach I made some steamed broccoli and gave those a quick toss in some garlic butter...

There was the dinner..... Quick, easy and different from the usual fare....
