Flaming Shrimp w/ a Cheddar Broccoli & Spinach Sauce

Flaming Shrimp W/ Cheddar Broccoli & Spinach Sauce

Ever had one of those meals that when you first start of cooking you’re not sure what the end results will be, well this is one of those. I had seen posts on Facebook all week that involved shrimp. There was shrimp and grits, shrimp scampi and shrimp tacos (I will be trying those next). I was destined to cook shrimp tonight. This was supposed to be a part of my Mother’s Day spread that never happened (but that’s another story). This recipe is quite simple and doesn’t require the two cheese varieties, I just used what I had left in my refrigerator. I am not big on measurements, but I promise I will get better and post more accurate seasoning measurements in particular. Bahamians season until it tastes good… Facts! The flaming flakes is hot so if you’re not a fan of heat it can be optional but ?? what’s Firehouse without the heat right ? Let me know, what you think and posts your final products. Happy Cooking!!
