Want Some Seafood Mama

My Mom just sent me this shrimp stir-fry recipe that she tried out to great success on my Dad and brother. So, crank up some Andrews Sisters tunes (I recommend "Hold Tight") and get your stir-fry on!

Ramen Shrimp and Veggies (Makes 4 servings)

1 lb. Uncooked peeled de-veined medium shrimp (or you can use frozen)
2 c. Water
1 pkg. (3 oz) Oriental-flavor Ramen noodle soup mix
1 bag (lb) Fresh or frozen stir-fry veggies
1/4 c. Stir-fry sauce

Cook shrimp in nonstick skillet 2 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pink and firm. Remove from pan and keep warm.

Heat water to boiling in same skillet. Break up noodles from soup mix into water; stir until slightly softened. Stir in veggies.

Heat to boiling. Boil 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until veggies are crisp-tender. Stir in seasoning packet from soup mix and stir-fry sauce. Cook 3 to 5 minutes longer, stirring frequently until hot. Then stir in shrimp.

So, in the words of the Andrews Sisters, "Hold tight, won't you hold tight. I want some seafood Mama! Shrimps and rice, they're very nice." Or in this case, shrimps and veggies are very nice. Thanks, Mom!
