Italian Grilled Shrimp Kabob’s

August 2, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 10 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Today my friend gave me the Charlean Extreme Workout set, I’m pretty psyched about using it.  I already did the first workout today and I’m already feeling it in my arms.  I love it! I’m hoping to tone up and lose a little muffin top before winter sets in and I have to start all over again.  Those darn Christmas cookies get me every time.  Have you used her workout?  I’m curious as to what you think, if you did. For those who are not familiar with the workout, it focuses more on muscles than fat because having muscles you burn more calories at rest then you do with cardio.  For me, I like strength training over cardio.  I am not a runner, dancer or a cardio person.  I wish I was, but I’m not.

For today’s recipe I have for you my Italian Grilled Shrimp Kabob’s.  Are they Kabob’s or Kababs?  Not sure?  I’ve seen it posted both ways.  But either way there easy and delicious!

I first want to apologize for pictures.  There are some different changes with them.  My new computer shows them brighter than my old, plus I felt rushed to take them because my Husband was sitting at the table waiting for his dinner.  Nothing worse than serving cold dinner, but I seem to do that more often.  Sorry Honey!


I was originally going to make Cajun Shrimp, but I decided on using Italian seasoning instead, because I was serving these with yesterday’s zucchini pizza’s.  They were perfect together. Along with the shrimp and zucchini I also served it with some garlic bread cooked on the grill.  This dinner was so easy to make.  The whole thing took about 5 minutes to cook and about 7 or so minutes to prepare and I’m including the zucchini in this time estimate.  This is such a flavorful and quick meal that is sure to please the family.  My Husband loved it!  I ate 4 oz of shrimp and he at the rest!  Oh, and I made a pound of shrimp.  He sat there reading his car magazine as he piled in the shrimp.  Glad he liked it!!

The seasoning I used is pretty simple.  I used the spices that I had on hand.  The shrimp turned out perfect.  They had a slight little kick from the dried red pepper flakes.  You know I have to put peppers wherever I see fit!!  I like to use the uncooked Wild Blue  Shrimp that I got at Trader Joe’s.  I really like using uncooked shrimp better than cooked because it’s easier for me to tell when the shrimp is done, that way I don’t over cook it.  Nothing worse than over done shrimp!  I also didn’t marinate the shrimp I just used a little bit of olive oil and the seasoning.  Thread onto a skewer, place on grill in about 5 minutes it’s done!

I have to tell you I just love shrimp.  I don’t eat it to often because of the cost, but when we do it’s a sure treat!  I was hoping for leftovers to put in my salad, but with my Husband eating them they disappeared right before my eyes.  🙁

Well time for me to make another dinner!  Hmmm, I’m debating between burgers or something with veggies.  Decisions, decisions.  I made a goal this week, not to buy any groceries except for some odds and ends, that way I can use up what I have on hand, so my food doesn’t go to waste and maybe I can clean out the freezer?

Have a super fantastic day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    This looks so good! Unfortunately I’m allergic to shellfish. Do you think I could use the same rub on a piece of tilapia or swordfish?

      I don’t see why not! The rub is perfect with a lot of things, like pizza, spaghetti sauce, in an oil & vingear mixture, chicken and fish!! Gove a try, I think you’ll be pleased!

    This looks so good! It’d go wonderfully with some bow-tie high fiber pasta tossed in.

    I’m excited to hear what you think about that workout video! I am definitely more of a cardio person but I’ve got to get that strength training in somehow!

Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little o Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little outdoor space with our lounge chairs. Truthfully I wanted to get rid of the lounge chairs as they take up so much room and we never lay on the chaises. However, over the winter my husband made new cushions for the them and I didn’t have the heart to get rid of them. He made the cushions for our dog Samantha who passed away this winter. She loved laying on the lounge chairs. The boys don’t like to sit on them, unless you are on them too. 
☀️
I do like the color combination of this space. It’s relaxing and I just love the Gerbera flowers. I wish I could keep the pillows on them, but my little Sully 🐶loves to tear apart pillows. So the pillows are living in my living room. I’ll bring them back outside if we have guests. 
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!
