Roasted shrimp and edamame

Roasted Shrimp and Edamame!

This is a ridiculously simple dinner.  A dinner for any working parents who need an answer to those nights, when they have gotten off work late, the kids are starving, and fast food or microwave meals seem like the absolute resort.  I have a super quick answer!  Skip the fatty, over processed meal, and opt for this delicious and fun dinner!  

Okay, so don't laugh...  open a large package, or two, of shelled edamame...  and pour it on a pan!  No need to even spritz with oil!  Now, here's the tricky part...  open a bag of large shrimp in shell...  and pour it on the pan!  Try to nestle the shrimp into pockets of the edamame, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.


Pop in the oven at 450*, and roast for about 10-12 minutes, until the shrimp have just turned fully pink and slightly curled.  Splash with the juice of one lemon, and serve!  You now have a wonderfully healthy and nutritious meal in under 15 minutes, and well under $15, which is much less than that nasty fast food dinner!
