Shrimp Opalossa

Stir all in rice cooker. Set to cook until rice cooker is done. Also, you can add any desired seasoning. I usually add Tony's, a cap of shrimp liquid boil, garlic and onion powder.

How about Pasta salad!
Here is the recipe:
1 package of tri colored pasta, cooked as to the directions on the package
carrots cut up in discs
cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1 can of canned shrimp, (I use the small shrimp)
cubed up cheddar cheese
1/2 to whole bottle of creamy Itailian dressing
I mix all of the ingredients together and mix with the dressing. I mix the salad and then refrigerate it for a few hours. It is so easy and delicious!

Enjoy! :)
