Shrimp Scampi:
The weather here today is gloomy, rain is drizzling sometime, the sun is nowhere to be seen. The perfect weather for getting more depressed when you are in homebound for long. I am not in a mood for cooking though as takeout is off now so I need to cook and that point, easy quick and delicious Shrimp Scampi comes to my mind. It is a quick recipe and easy to make. Generally in this recipe, no veggies are needed yet I used some grated carrot and thin-sliced beans to make it healthy. Cutting veggies very thinner and adding them in dishes is my secret way to make them invisible and the result is my son will eat it without any tantrum. Noodles or Linguine pasta both can be used to make this dish. Other ingredients and tips are below in the recipe.
