Remembrance Day....and anniversary

We're celebrating our 21st anniversary today, along with Remembrance Day, and a lovely day we had! Lots of sunshine, not too cold, and no commitments all day long. Today's menu is quick and easy: shrimp scampi served over tomato wholegrain rice, with carrots and peas. Apple pie for dessert.

Shrimp Scampi

1/2 - 1 pound cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tbs butter, melted
1 tbs minced garlic
4 tbs lemon juice
1/2 tsp each salt, pepper, paprika
1/2 cup chopped parsley

In large bowl, combine butter, garlic, lemon juice and spices. Place shrimp in oven-proof casserole dish. Pour butter mixture over shrimp and toss to coat. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top. Broil 1-2 minutes until shrimp are golden. Serve over rice.
