Big bowl of carb hugging garlicky soup with juicy shrimp scampi smiles!
Sometimes you just need to wrap yourself in a comfy blanket on the couch, with a big warm bowl of soup on a weekday. This what I call cooking meditation! It is so important to take a moment to be still and at peace especially in a hectic life. If your life is super busy find a moment to do something that is joyful even if just five minutes. For me and Tom this is sweatpants, comfy blankets, and soup slurping noodles. We put our dinner on the coffee table, sit on the floor, and slow down the day and eat together! This is our moment for us to just be together and in the moment. What can you add to your end of day to bring peace and stillness? Think out of the box. Does not need to be traditional like meditation, or yoga. It can be reading a book, listen to music, or just laying in bed staring at the ceiling.
This recipe is a combo of my favorite things to order growing up at a restaurant, shrimp scampi and Toms favorite noodle soup. It is done in 30 minutes or less and there are some fun tricks to add lots of flavor! Check out the video for fun cooking tips and hacks. Cheers to recipes that celebrate you!
Hope you love this recipe as much as me and Tom do! Happy cooking!
Recipe Hack / Cooking Tips:
- Slice garlic instead of chopping: Garlic burns in 30 seconds and changes the flavor of your dishes. If you slice garlic in thin discs (see video) it will take longre to burn and you will have recipe success.
- Make lemon more juicy: If lemon does not seem juicy. Put in microwave 10 seconds and it will soften up.
