Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice

Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice

Review: Yummy. It's always a bit time consuming cutting a pineapple. I wasn't so fond of the texture of the green onion, but that is just personal preference. I did like the flavor they added. If you want a cute way to serve it check out the link, she cut a pineapple in half and served it in there! It was very pretty for a fancy dinner.

Changes: I think next time I'd like to add some sweet red pepper. Give it a little more flavor and color!

Review: Good, a bit time consuming to skewer all the pieces.

Changes: I did not use anchovies. I forgot the water, and I blended everything except the oil, and then added the oil in one big blob because I was using my mini chopper. I chopped up the veggies and made the sauce in the morning and let them marinade most of the day. The I added the shrimp just before I skewered them. I also just put the remaining cheese on before I grilled them.

Served With: Rice and green salad.

I think I would try this again and add some pineapple to the line-up. Although I don't think I'd marinate them, that might be strange.

Review: Full of flavor and pretty simple. I really enjoyed the shrimp. Next time I will cut the parsley smaller, I didn't enjoy the texture of leaves.

Changes: I didn't buy enough asparagus, so I only used 1 lb. I also didn't have chicken stock, so I substituted vegetable bouillon. I had to cook the broth for alot longer to get it to thicken up.

Served With: Buttered bread. Should have served with rice instead, but who doesn't like bread...

Nick changed the days he was out of town this week, so I've switched Wednesday and Thursday's meals. We have enough left overs we will probably have them for lunch and dinner tomorrow too. So be sure to check back August 15th for the next review!
