Roasted Shrimp

   Fun fact: I love shrimp!
   I find it very easy to make, and its probably one of my favorite foods to eat.
   This is a ridiculously easy recipe.

Ingredients
    1 lb of peeled, devined shrimp, tails on
    2 cups of cherry tomatoes
    8 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
    Olive oil, for drizzling
    Salt and pepper
    1 lemon


Directions
   Preheat oven to 400.
   Place shrimp and cherries on a rimmed sheet pan.
   Sprinkle garlic slices on pan.
   Drizzle olive oil over everything and sprinkle salt and pepper.
   Roast for 10 to 12 minutes.
   Squeeze half lemon over shrimp before serving.


Changes I Made!
    I squeeze the lemon before and after roasting to bring more of that flavor to the table.


This recipe is from Pioneer Woman: Come and Get It!

Changes I made!    I do not mess with this recipe except what I add on top when I eat. This recipe is from Taste of Home. 

By the Cookbooks

Hello one and all,       Since living on my own, I've fostered a great love for cooking. It's how I show people I care, and I find great comfort in it.       Now, I have a friend who knows this about me and regularly buys me cookbooks as gifts, but I have never used them. I either ask family members for recipes or go online to for recipes. Pinterest has been my diet's best friend. Six cookbooks just sat there, waiting to have their creations made.       After a free weekend, I decided to dig into my 6 cookbooks and have found many new recipes I want to try.      The six cookbooks, all very different, but also represent a different part of my life.      I've picked recipes from:      1) The "I Don't Know How to Cook" Book, 2nd edition by Mary-Lane Kamberg.      2) The Book Lover's Cookbook by Shaunda Kennedy Wenger & Janet Kay Jensen.      3) 100 Perfect D...
