RECIPE OF THE WEEK
  
This one is a real hit and will go fast so make
two batches for larger parties

EASY COCONUT SHRIMP

INGREDIENTS:  

1 lb uncooked peeled de-veined medium shrimp (31 to 35)
1 cup Original Bisquick Mix
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups flaked coconut
1/2 cup chili sauce
1/2 cup apricot preserves

DIRECTIONS:

Thaw shrimp if frozen. Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. In medium bowl, mix Bisquick mix, egg and milk. Add shrimp; gently stir to coat well.

In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat to 375°F. In shallow dish, place half of the coconut (add remaining coconut after coating half of the shrimp).

Cooking in batches, remove shrimp one at a time from batter and coat with coconut; place in oil in a single layer. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, turning once, until coating is crispy and golden brown and shrimp are pink (cut 1 shrimp open to check if done). Drain on paper towels.

In small bowl, mix chili sauce and apricot preserves. Serve shrimp with sauce for dipping. 
 




PEACE, LOVE, AND HARMONY 


T oday, all the annoying things and people will not annoy you anymore. For you have chosen to live at peace with life.

Today you have no need to explain or prove yourself. You can rise above what previously would have kept you down.

You can accept what is, where you are, and what has happened. And relate to others from a perspective of positive purpose.

Today you can remind yourself how truly unique and valuable your life is, and live it accordingly, in Peace, Love & Harmony. :)
