Brady’s Bourbon Sesame Shrimp

Last night we went to play tennis, since it’s all of 60 degrees out! We were sad to find the nets were not up yet, I guess it really isn’t Spring yet. 😦

So we came home and Brady started to make dinner:

Brady’s Bourbon Sesame Shrimp

• shrimp (we boiled our raw shrimp for a few minutes first)
• bourbon (equal parts with soy)
• soy sauce (equal parts with bourbon)
• sesame seeds (as many as you like)
• sesame oil (enough for your tastes)

1. Boil or cook shrimp so it is not raw.
2. Marinate shrimp in bourbon, soy and sesame seeds and oil.
3. Place shrimp in marinade on a cookie sheet
4. Broil for 5 min.
5. Serve and enjoy!

HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!!

Very Veggie Dinner

Dinner today was just me!  It was a completely exhausting day at school – I had a student (third grade, let me remind you) hide in the stalls of the bathroom (feet up on the toliet and all!) to get out of class.  You would think I was teaching high school.

Anyways, I ran to get my oil changed after school and came home starving.  I reheated the chickpeas and Kashi pilaf from last night and baked some GC tofu.  Meanwhile, I sauteed some broccoli, asparagus and mushrooms.  It was the perfect meal to complete my day.

Luckily, Brady had an early flight this morning so we were up around 4:30 and I headed to the gym.  I was planning on working out again a little tonight but just do it.  Maybe tomorrow?
