Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Sheet Pan Supper

During this pandemic, I've been missing some of my favorite dishes while everything was shut down. I realize that you could still order for take out, but that was another trip to town that I didn't NEED to make. (Well, I thought it was worth it, but it's a long story) So I started to create my own versions of my favorite foods. Not surprisingly, almost everything that I have recreated is from a local Mexican restaurant that I love. These bacon wrapped shrimp are one of my favorite dishes from my favorite place. I order it almost every time that I go. This version that I made last night tastes exactly like it does at the restaurant, and even my kids loved it. Plus, it was easy to make! If you love bacon and shrimp, give these a try!

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Sheet Pan Supper

Author: The Marigold Kitchen

Inspired by a favorite dish at a local restaurant.

Ingredients:

• 12 ounce package of shrimp (I used 41-50 count per pound size)
• 9-10 slices bacon, cut into fourths (I only needed 9 slices since I had 36 shrimp)
• 1/2 onion, sliced
• 1 green pepper, sliced with seeds removed
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup Monterrey jack cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 425. Line a sheet pan with foil.
2. Slice the onion and green pepper. Spread out on the sheet pan.
3. Season shrimp with the garlic powder and pepper. Wrap each one with a fourth piece of bacon. Place on top of the vegetables.
4. Bake for 30-35 minutes at 425 degrees, or until the shrimp is done and the bacon is crisp.
5. Top with cheese, bake 5 minutes longer.

Root Beer Blondies

Root Beer has always been one of my favorite drinks and flavors. An ice cold root beer seems to always hit the spot. As a kid I loved the root beer hard candies. You know, the ones that are shaped like an old barrel? Actually, I still like them! And I can remember many hot summer nights when my siblings and I would enjoy root beer floats. These root beer blondies taste just like root beer, and are even better with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and some sweetened whipped cream. If you like root beer, you'll love these!
