Lemon and Garlic Roasted Shrimp
My kids absolutely love shrimp so I decided to make this recipe I found on MyRecipes for their lunch this weekend. I let the shrimp marinate for 10 minutes prior to roasting and they turned out perfectly cooked and very delicious. They both gobbled up the entire dish in minutes. I love quick, simple, and healthy recipes that my kids LOVE. This would be good on its own, over rice or pasta, or as an appetizer. Both of my kids gave this recipe a thumbs up!
