Saucy Mama Shrimp & Beans...and our first Giveaway!




So I am one of the lucky food bloggers participating in an exciting recipe contest from Saucy Mama! Their Fab with Five Recipe Challenge is on, and I have to create recipes using 5 ingredients (not counting salt, pepper or oil), including one of their fabulous products. AND they are so sweet they sent me a box filled with their mustards and marinades to use in my recipes!

Today is my first entry using their delicious Tarragon Lemon Mustard. This mustard is a little sweet, a little spicy, and is packed with flavors of tarragon and Meyer lemon. It takes my shrimp and beans to a whole new level, and this dish is quick and easy...perfect for dinner for the family!


SAUCY MAMA SHRIMP AND BEANS


3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 stick of celery

2 small carrots or 1 medium carrot

¾ lb extra large shrimp, peeled

a pinch of salt
