Where I live, we are usually enjoying some Spring-like weather by now, but this year the snow and cold just wont go away. I haven't been inspired enough to cook much lately since I've had it with winter staples like soups and stews, roasts, and anything else that has to be done in the oven. Though I do tend to barbeque year-round, even that has been put on the back-burner lately, simply for lack of inspiration.
I am in desperate need of some sunlight, some warm weather, and some fresh recipes to get the creative juices flowing again - which is why I was so excited to see Brilynn's recipe for Mango Wrapped Thai Shrimp. This dish just looks like summer. It conjurs up visions of a tropical island and endless sunshine, and I'm sure it tastes pretty amazing too. You can view the entire recipe at her site Jumbo Empanadas.
