Threaded this onto skewers along with bell peppers and cherry tomatoes for a family get together. Everybody thought they were very special and I'm a culinary genius. Thanks, Lori.

I cant believe I forgot to review this recipe. It was absolutely fabulous. And SO easy to make.

You are so right, Lori; simple and sublime. Served as one of two simple appetizers for an Easter feast. Instead of one small clove, Lori, I roasted a whole head of garlic, squeezed out the cloves when cool enough to handle and crushed them with a fork; added to the other ingredients and mixed well to coat the shrimp, skewered and served as you suggested... Lovely. Thank you Lori.
