I LOVE this dish. Unfortunately, I'm the only one in my family that likes shrimp and this recipe makes a TON. I only make this recipe when I'm in the mood to eat shrimp for a couple of days. It's from Weeknight Cooking Made Easy.

Very yummy! I added both shrimp and sausage due to my daughters dislike of shrimp and I omitted the peas due to my dislike of them. A little extra kick was given by a few dashes of Tobasco... This is a keeper! Thank you!!!
