Colleen’s New England Clam Chowder

June 6, 2013
Clam Chowder

My sister makes a wicked delicious New England Clam Chowder.  When she made it a while back, my family was in awe.  Could something taste so good?  We have her to make it any chance we get – like when we spend weekend afternoons at the winery. New England Clam Chowder screams summer.  Pair it with lobster, scallops, hot dogs, hamburgers, etc.  A delicious appetizer at any backyard picnic.  Your…

Shrimp Salad

May 10, 2013
Shrimp Taco Salad

We love Shrimp; we’ve made buffalo pizza, panini, cajun…we can go on and on.  Shrimp can make a great addition to almost anything.  What I love about the summer is when I can incorporate seafood into any meal.  Although lobstahh is my first choice, shrimp comes in a close second; they are easy to prepare and are a small, delicious accessory to your dish. While on vacation, I had a…

Mama’s Seared Scallops

May 9, 2013
Seared Scallops

My mama, aka Mommy Marquis, aka Tammy loves scallops.  Anytime we’re out at a seafood restaurant – well any restaurant – she’ll use that opportunity to hunt down scallops on the menu.  I’m not sure why she loves them so much, maybe it’s equal to my addiction to chocolate? Loving scallops so much, my mom decided to start buying them at the seafood market and cooking them herself.  She came up with…

Roasted Shrimp and Steak

Roasted Shrimp and Steak

It’s seafood week!  To jumpstart summer, we’re going to feature a whole week of seafood-inspired dishes.  Shrimp, salmon, scallops, some traditional, some experimental, but all delicious!  Our first dish uses roasted shrimp atop a savory steak. I was craving steak and thought I could simply top the steak with some shrimp or scallops; I went for the shrimp.  I roasted the shrimp in a lemon olive oil with a touch…

Crab Cakes

February 26, 2013

These aren’t SpongeBob’s krabby patties.  These are 100% delicious crab cakes from the bottom of the sea.  My mom and I were in a mood for some good seafood.  She loves crab cakes, but has not had any luck with recipes she’s come across. If you’re looking for some good southern comfort food, you can always count on Paula Deen to provide a delicious recipe.  We searched the net to…

Shrimp Spring Rolls

December 12, 2012

Every family gathering is not a family gathering unless my aunt Helen brings her delicious egg rolls – a recipe that I have unsuccessfully been able to get out of her… Regardless, these egg rolls bring smiles to everyone who sees them.  I thought I should try to find a recipe that switches up this family favorite.  Enter the shrimp spring roll. These do take up a good amount of…

Pop! Goes My Shrimp (Panini)

November 21, 2012

One night at Stephanie’s house we made some shrimp paninis, watched an episode of CSI featuring Sqweegel, and got a little twisted.  This panini idea was hers, so I give her all the credit.  This was a quick and easy dinner idea, especially if you were craving some seafood.  Oh yeah, she also runs this blog called Pop! Goes My Culture, so head on over there to get your Matt…

Salmon Bisque

November 13, 2012

Hi, Ashley here! At this point, we’re friends right? No need to introduce myself anymore. Good, because I want to get right into this recipe for a salmon bisque. My dad loves to fish, and this weekend he brought home some fresh salmon. He wanted to make something different, and since it’s getting chilly outside, we decided on a warm bisque. Of course you could use any seafood you’d like-…
