Spicy Apricot Glazed Shrimp. Flavorful horseradish and tangy whole grain mustard are key. Ready in 20 minutes!

Welcome to the Recipe ReDux March 2017 Challenge!

Spring Clean the Kitchen

Cook with at least 3 ingredients that are actually in your refrigerator or pantry right now. Try not to go to the store to buy anything new. Give tips on how to make a healthy dish out of whatever you have on-hand.
I’m a big shrimp fan. There is always a bag of shrimp in my freezer. I love them any way I can get them from deep fried to steamed. Slurping shrimp bisque, nibbling shrimp cocktail or a healthy stir-fry. Bubba Blue got nothing on me! Ha!

So when I found apricot preserves, horseradish and Dijon whole grain mustard in my fridge it had to be a shrimp dish! Sweet, tangy and oh so good! I know you’ll agree!

Flaked Salmon Arugula Spinach Watercress Salad #SundaySupper

Flaked Salmon Arugula Spinach Watercress Salad taste spring in every bite. Fresh greens, bits of salmon, shaved Asiago drizzled with Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette.
Flaked Salmon Arugula Spinach Watercress Salad

Spring in just around the corner. Literally, tomorrow! I’m so excited! Everyday brings more light, warmth and renewal. Flowers poking their heads through the ground, through the snow, stretching towards the growing light.

The entire earth participates. It is the Spring Equinox.

“There are only two times of the year when the Earth’s axis is tilted neither toward nor away from the sun, resulting in a “nearly” equal amount of daylight and darkness at all latitudes. These events are referred to as Equinoxes…”(source:https://www.weather.gov)

A fresh salad speaks to me. I hear those greens come a-calling just begging to be eaten. A boost of nutritious salmon and nutty Asiago makes my mouth water. Fresh, in season Meyer Lemons need to be everything. So of course these tart sweet treats are the star of the vinaigrette.

Irish Amber Ale Pretzels #BreadBakers

Irish Amber Ale Soft Pretzels

Irish Amber Ale Pretzels bring soft, chewy goodness to the table. Rich with buttermilk and Irish Amber Ale. Skip the yeast. Ready in under 30 minutes!

Irish Amber Ale Pretzels

Welcome to another addition of Bread Bakers! Today we’re getting our Irish on!

BreadBakers

It’s hard to believe these soft, chewy pretzels are made with baking powder. I used a standard baking soda bath to produce that popular texture we all love in a soft pretzel.

Bob’s Red Mill Artisan Flour helped give these pretzels an out of this world texture! I used Smithwick’s Irish Amber Ale as the beer for these pretzels. Not too heavy and oh so flavorful!

I’ll make these pretzels again and again.

You have to have spicy mustard and an Irish Ale wouldn’t hurt either!

  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 6 ounces buttermilk
  • 6 ounces amber ale or lager, at room temperature
  • 1 egg beaten with water for egg wash

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
