SOUTHWESTERN SHRIMP WITH SALSA
I prefer grilling in the summer because you don't need to turn on the stove and heat up the house. If you want to get fancy, serve it in a chilled martini glass for a beautiful presentation. The rice and/or shrimp can be cooked a day ahead and refrigerated until serving. -Lindsay Matuszak, Reno, Nevada

SHRIMP SALSA
I have been making this salsa for years, and love to make it for special occasions, it always is a hit. I also love to make it for gifts. I get some really pretty canning jars, fill them with the salsa, and decorate the jars. It's best to let the salsa chill 8 hours or overnight before use, to let the flavors meld together....mmmmmm
