I picked this recipe in honor of being in SC this week. My hubby loves shrimp and grits! Some recipe are much more complicated than others. I just found this recipe online and haven't tried it yet, but it seems simple enough that even I could do it. LOL
Have a great day!!
Peace and love,

That does look good - too bad I don't care for shrimp. I made "Tilapia a la francaise" last evening, a big favorite in this house.
Dredge fillets is flour, dip in egg wash, pan fry in olive oil and butter over med high heat, 5 minutes per side. Finish with white wine and juice of half a lemon. Yum!
Aren't you tired of the beach yet? When are you getting home? I miss you!!!!!
