Happy Monday y'all!

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Our's was awesome! We spent the day shrimping  in the nice blazing hot sun! HAHAHA!! This time of year the shrimp run in our Saint Johns River. Everyone gets a net and heads out to catch those tasty shrimp. http://www.afn.org/~gofc/shrscall.html
Scalloping is also a fun thing to do. We have been 3 times this summer and have such a blast going. We go to Steinhatchee on the gulf side and head out. Check out this link on pictures and information. http://www.steinhatchee.com/scalloping-information/  These are some scallops we caught.

Today for dinner I am going to make Creamy Bacon Carbonara with Shrimp!!! Why yes, I would love some!!! This is so yummy...:)

Ingredients:
1/2 pound of pasta
fresh or dried parsley flakes
2 cups of shrimp (seasoned to liking and pan seared. I use chicken sometimes too)
1/2 cup of heavy cream
1/2 cup fresh Parmesan cheese
2 tsp. olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
2 large eggs (fresh for me)
1/2 lb. of bacon fried crisp then crumbled
1 small onion finely chopped
1/2 cup chopped mushrooms (optional)

In a large bowl, mix the eggs, cream, Parmesan, parsley, salt and the olive oil in a bowl and set aside.
Next in a large frying pan, fry the bacon until crisp, crumble and set aside.
Saute Shrimp and set aside.
With 1-2 Tbsp. bacon grease, saute the onion until translucent and golden, then add the cooked shrimp to coat.
Cook and drain pasta, while still hot add the onion and shrimp mixture and mix well. Finally, pour the egg/cream sauce into the pasta and stir over low heat for one to two minutes until fully incorporated.
Remove from heat and fold in bacon, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and enjoy!
cooked in butter with chili powder, Greek seasoning and onion powder.
