I was going to make the recipe from The Cookbook for Women, but I forgot to do something...the orange marinade. Yep, I had marinade less shrimp, sigh. Well, don't fear, I still managed to cook a 25 minute shrimp dinner that pleased two members of our household. Thing Two is not a shrimp person and preferred fish sticks with his green beans.
Calypso Shrimp For Those of Us Who Don't Cook Often:
Saute shrimp with a tablespoon of olive oil, fresh peppercorn, sea salt and clove of garlic.
Take one can of black beans and drain. Mix well with fresh pico de gallo. I didn't make mine from scratch. I bought the Marketside brand from Walmart, and it is delicious. I tossed it together with the shrimp and then served everything over brown rice. I am thinking of using wheat tortillas in the future.
I want to also recommend the Cookbook for Women. The recipes I have tried are wonderful and appealing. The instructions are easy to follow, and the pictures will draw you in. It my current favorite cookbook, but it goes beyond food. It inspires lifestyle changes for women of any age. It is the perfect reference book for any woman from 20 to 99.

I am not a shrimp eater...but that does sound good, this cookbook looks great too, on your previous blog you mentioned the weekly recipe and list, that is the way to go...we do that too in order to save time and money...so much easier than just winging it...nice posts.
