Recipe Reviews | Shrimp and Sauce

I’ve been a lot better at posting my weekly menus on here than I thought I would be. It’s actually really great that I can quickly access it and all the recipes on my phone. Since I usually have a whole week of recipes that aren’t my own I want to get better at doing short reviews of the recipes after I try them. I know I probably won’t do it all the time but maybe it’ll be helpful to anyone thinking about trying them out. Kind of like those sites that have Pinterest fails.

Roasted Lemon Garlic Shrimp 

On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this a 7. It was super easy, satisfying and pretty tasty. I am drawn to recipes that use fresh thyme because my plant is out of control. I served this on a bed of couscous. I think pasta would be better. 

Slow Cooker Pasta Sauce

No photo for you but that’s ok. I wasn’t super impressed with this one. Yes, it was easy but taste wise, only a 3. There wasn’t any depth. It was just tomato sauce. The eggplant and sausage were definitely the saviors. I probably won’t be making this again. I have this other recipe for sauce that is amazing. I don’t remember where I got it but I’ll have to post it here one day. I think the fennel makes it amazing.
