Garlic Lemon and Butter Shrimp!

Garlic Lemon and Butter Shrimp!

I have been totally MIA this past week. The girl brought home a horrible bug and incubated it so that she could release it to the rest of the family. I was the first victim. I still have a horrible cough, but I am at least able to walk from one room to another without falling on my face. To celebrate my balance, I made this super easy and very yummy Garlic Lemon and Butter Shrimp! I do not know what it is about this time of year, but once the weather warms up, all I want is sea food. Shrimp has been on my mind since I got sick, and I have been dying make it! This recipe is super simple, and because it is shrimp, it only takes a few minutes!

Slow Cooker Sriracha Pork Tenderloin

Oh how I love my slow cooker, I use it year round! I love it during the summer because I can pop something in it and then go and play out in the garden without having to worry about it. The hubby is a certified Sriracha addict, so anytime I can incorporate it into a meal, he is a happy camper. So, this slow cooker sriracha pork tenderloin is a winner in both of our books! Spicy, with a little hint of sweet that that even the kiddos love!
