New Orleans-style Shrimp Recipe
🕒 Total Time: 30 minutes

Description:
Don’t bother peeling the shrimp for an everyday meal — just team them with cole-slaw and toasted bread (and napkins); follow it all with sliced bananas and pecan cookies. When it’s time for a party, peel the shrimp, and place them on angel hair pasta tossed with a colorful selection of roasted bell peppers. From Bon Appetit.
