Thanks for sharing the crab and shrimp tips as well. This sounds fab......but a question here.....Isn't there supposed to be alot of cholesterol in the seafood? I am an avid lover of seafood,but told that with my cholesterol,that was really high,to lay off the seafood. I luv the recipes....they are quick and simple and YUMMY!!! OMG.....I think I will go and raid my refridgerator now....lol! Thanks again,Tera, You have wonderful tips. P.s....when I read your posts,I find you being so POSITIVE....HOW DO YOU KEEP THE FAITH GOING HERE?HELP!!!
