Dad’s Grilled Shrimp

Olive oil drizzeled of the shrimp (2-3 tbs)
Garlic 1-3 cloves crushed
lemon or lime juice (juice from 1)
cover with paprika (don’t worry when you mix it it blends)
2-3 green onions chopped (or any onion about 1/2)
1/2 teaspoon jerk seasoning
Dash of red pepper flakes
mix and cool for 1/2 hour
That’s it I think but you never know if I left something out. When I make it I just grab whatever is handy, like Ken’s italian dressing in addition to the Olive oil
Have fun and enjoy
Oh yeah I forgot the parsley. A couple of Tbs before you mix

Dad’s Burritos

Simple, get a pound+ of ground beef (I like more than a pound, about 1.25lb) Brown in frying pan, add burrito seasoning. We use El Rio, hard to find but good. If you can’t find, Taco seasoning works. Follow instructions on package. When it starts to boil add 1/2 a can of refried beans, stir in and make smooth. Cook for ten minutes (per instructions) this helps the filling get firm. Pre heat oven to 350

Get Burrito size flour tortilla, spoon about 3-4 tablespoons in the lower half and roll once, fold in the sides and finish rolling. Continue until finished with mixture. Put in pan, cover with salsa and put in oven for about 6 minutes, remove and cover with cheese (Mexican mix)

Set oven to broil. Meanwhile chop some lettuce, green onions, whatever other toppings you want. Place cheese covered burritos in oven and watch the cheese melt, remove when ever you feel the cheese is the way you like it. Me, I like to let it get brown edges.

Remove and serve with sour cream (Yum), guacamole is good also, lettuce and onions.
