YUMMY SPICY SHRIMP WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA
This is one of my husband's favorites (mine, too!). We like the sweet and spicy combination of shrimp, peas, and hot pepper, but it is also good with broccoli, asparagus, or other vegetables, or by itself. We love this with a big green salad and a glass of Shiraz! I use pre-cooked shrimp for this, but you can also use raw - just add them a minute or two earlier to the peas. This looks more complicated than it is - we often rely on this recipe as a quick and easy weeknight dinner. Actual cooking time is only about 10-15 minutes, the prep time is marinading time.

Great, simple shrimp dish, where the shrimp are grilled. You can cook them on the stove-top, but grilling them gives them better flavor.

GARLIC ANGEL HAIR SHRIMP
This was inspired by one of my favorite restaurant pasta dishes. I keep the lemon separate until the end due to a picky family member, but you could add it earlier if everyone likes lemon. Do not use pre-cooked shrimp and don't overcook the shrimp.
