And it's Shrimp tonight!!

Okay, so in keeping with my LAZY theme (if you are unaware of my laziness, you will soon figure it out), I made these shrimp for dinner last night. If you are making these for more than 2 people, I would double or triple the recipe. It fed me and the Mr, but if the kids were eating with us, I would have needed a bigger boat. ;)

 Start with about a pound of raw, uncooked shrimp. I bought a bag that was about 31-40 count, but that is just what they had at the store (plus I REALLY hate cleaning shrimp, so I buy them already done for me)

 In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic (I used 4 cloves. The hubs has never met a garlic clove he didn't like), honey, salt and pepper. Drop in your shrimp and swirl. I put mine in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes, but you could certainly leave them overnight and cook the next day. I am a BIG fan of anything I can do today to save me time at dinner another day. I am sure to have a blog all about the craziness that always ensues around dinner time. ;)

 Put shrimp on skewers. Be sure to soak wooden skewers in water first so they don't burn. 

And here is my completed dinner. Since I am trying to eat healthy, quinoa and brussel sprouts. I love quinoa, and will start featuring recipes with that soon. I am obsessed with making it into other recipes. 

Garlic Lemon Shrimp

• 3 cloves of garlic run through a garlic press
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp honey (21g)
• Kosher Salt & Pepper
• 1 pound of uncooked shrimp (I used 26-30 count)

Mix together all ingredients, let sit for 20 minutes and then grill for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on the size of your shrimp.
