Shrimp on a Stick
Soak shrimp in Italian salad dressing for 1/2 hour.
Remove from marinate and season them well with Old Bay and lemon pepper.
Put them on skewers alternating shrimp with any vegetables that your family likes (just be sure the vegetables have the same cook time as the shrimp).
Cook until they are pink – just a few minutes.
Kids love anything cooked on a stick! It’s a good way to get them to eat seafood and vegetables.

3-4 green onions (diced)
1 can water chestnuts (diced) I usually only use about 1/3
1 tsp fresh ginger
3 cloves fresh garlic (crushed)
Mix all ingredients. Place by tsp full on won ton skins and fold into triangle. Cook in hot cooking oil until golden brown.
Mandarin Sauce
1 cup/can whole tomatoes
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup chopped white onion
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 slice fresh ginger (1/8 inch thick)

My favorite shrimp dishes are either shrimp and vegetables grilled on skewers or a simple seafood salad, with crabmeat and cilantro if it’s available.

I love to bathe my salmon fillets in some fresh lemon juice. Remove and cover in honey, wrap it up in foil and place it in the oven to slowly bake
