Shrimp Stirfry in 15 minutes

Like most, I enjoy quick and simple meals. The fact of the matter is I suck with writing recipes because I tend to just make them up as I go along lol.

Enjoy!

How to make a 15 minute Shrimp Stirfry & Tomato Salad


What you need:
  • Olive Oil
  • Shrimp (You can substitute with Chicken, Beef)
  • Any Noodles
  • Mushroom (Or any veggies in your fridge)
  • Teriyaki Sauce

How to prepare:

1. In a wok/ pan, fry the shrimp in olive oil until cooked and lightly brown
2. Add onions and fry till tender
3. Add noodles and a bit of water (don't put too much water- the noodles will primarily be cooked by the steam!)
4. When noodles are separating add your mushroom then mix it up for a minute
5. Add teriyaki sauce, mix for about 2 minutes. Ready to eat!

Other tasties on the plate:

Grape tomatoes, diced cheese, olives dressed in a Balsamic vinaigrette.

The Canadian Martha Stewart

A drive out of the city brought us to the most perfect hostess.

Great company, but more impressive was the culinary perfection and presentation. This woman is by far the most talented woman I've ever met. Her house's interior (and exterior) decor is so detailed and so precise. Felt like I was in a staged home. The dinner presentation was absolutely breath-taking! Were it not for embarrassment, I would've definitely taken pictures of this lovely evening. But please believe me when I say, I have met Canada's Martha Stewart!

Something I wish to aspire to (ok fine, maybe one day :).

If you or anyone ever needs an interior designer, florist, high-end chef to cater please ask me about Amanda!

A perfect evening.
