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!

Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and oh my gosh, I love it!! Pink is so fun! I thought I would share with you how I styled my kitchen sink area.
💗
The inspiration for this space came from the stunning pieces that I was gifted from my friend Britni @arcadian.collective. I love her shop! Such timeless, elegant pieces that will last a lifetime.
💗
I received from Arcadian Collective the solid marble Seraphine Butter Bell, Vintage European solid brass Salt & Pepper Mill, Carrara Cielo Marble Stone Serveware and the cutest pink little Christmas candle. Check out my Arcadian Collective highlight for more details on each product. They would make a great holiday gift!
💗
Hope you have a wonderful day! I’ll be working on the living room today.

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last years Christmas. I plan on doing green again in the living room. I just think it looks classic, plus I have all the decor already. So no need to buy more.
🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!

Hello! Happy October! Hope you are having a great Hello! Happy October! Hope you are having a great start to the month. I received the cutest fragrance package from @myclaireburke. I couldn’t wait to add these wonderful fragrances to my home.
🍎
The scent I received is Apple Jack & Peel. It’s fresh apples with cinnamon and a hint of citrus. It smells like fall. Reminds me of when we go to Apple Hill to go apple picking, which we will be doing next week.
🍎
The scent is warm and cozy and the candle and potpourri is so pretty. Not only do these look so pretty in my home, but they would make such a wonderful housewarming gift. I wish you could smell them.
🍎
If you are looking for Fall and Winter scented fragrances. I highly recommend checking out @myclaireburke
🍎
Have a great day!

It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I don’t know what it is, but I love to give pumpkins a bath. Don’t they look cute bathing in the sunlight with bubbles around them? lol
🎃
There are two methods that I have used  in the past; the chlorine bath and the dish soap bath. This is what I have learned.
🎃
My favorite and only way I wash pumpkins now is using dish soap.  It gets rid of the sap and makes them clean. I soak my pumpkins for about 20 minutes. The pumpkins will last until December. Plus if you keep your pumpkins after the holidays it will decay and grow pumpkins the following year. Plus it’s safe for animals that may nibble on your pumpkin.
🎃
The chlorine bath method will make your pumpkins last possibly up to a year. They take very long to break down and I never got my pumpkins to seed themselves. Plus it is not safe for animals in my opinion. Though Clorox Bleach says it’s safe, they just taste salty.
🎃
The key to washing pumpkins is to make sure that you get the area around the stem dry. You don’t want water around the stem. This could make your pumpkin rot sooner. So after the bath, dry your pumpkins off very good. 
🎃
Did you get your pumpkins yet?
.
PS if you are in the Bay Area, I highly recommend going to @threenunnsfarm to get your pumpkins. They have a wide variety and the pumpkins and are .75 a pound. I bought all these pumpkins for $42.
