Low in calories & De-e-e-e-e-licious!

In April, we celebrated Shrimp, Shrimp, Scampi, Scampi! Shrimp is on the menu again but this time not limited to just scampi. Did you know Americans eat more shrimp than any other seafood? Why not? Shrimp are low in calories and de-e-e-e-e-licious! Just remember above all..the little shrimpies are delicate and at their best when NOT overcooked! Get ready to bake, boil, broil, saute, stuff, fry or grill to your delight.
