Garlic Shrimp and Rice Recipe

Hey everyone!

I'm so excited to finally have a new seafood recipe to share with you! It's been awhile since I've bought shrimp. In the last month or two before the move, we pretty much ate out of the freezer and pantry buying minimal groceries. We got tons of stuff used up, which was less to move! After we got settled, I was so ready to go out and buy a bag of shrimp and test out this recipe!

Both my daughter and I thought this recipe was a winner!! Like most of the recipes I post, this is a quick and easy meal. It was on the cheaper side to make, even with using seafood. Get your shrimp on sale, and both rice and spinach are cheap. The rest is basic pantry ingredients!

I'm so glad you stopped by today, and I hope you love this recipe! Until next time... :)
