    Cajun Shrimp, Serve over toasted garlic bread slices with a tossed green salad with your favorite dressing! Also good over grits! From Southern Living, June 2007, Divine! My family loved this. Quick to prepare even using frozen shrimp as I did. Defrosts easily under lukewarm water. Will make again. Great entre to go along with my red beans and rice., This recipe was delicious and easy to make! I was making this for my boyfriend and at first he thought shrimp and grits were an odd combo until he had some. That made a believer out of him! My favorite part of this meal was when the delicious herbs mixed in with the creamy grits! yum!
