Roasted Shrimp w/ Crinkle Fries

Dinner Tonight: Roasted Shrimp w/ Crinkle Fries


A simple and quick dinner tonight.I tried a new recipe for Shrimp along with a homemade Shrimp Cocktail Sauce. I used the rest of the Shrimp leftover from yesterday. i seasoned with Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Sea Salt, and Ground Black Pepper and then baked them at 400 degrees for 9 minutes. I also made the Cocktail Sauce. I'll post the recipes for the Shrimp and Cocktail Sauce at the end of the post. Along with the Shrimp I had a serving of Ore Ida Crinkle Fries. For a dessert/snack later tonight I'll be having Jennie - O Extreme Turkey Nachos.
