Shrimp and Wild Rice Skillet. Shrimp and Wild Rice Skillet is healthy and hearty. A craveable gluten- free dinner recipe! Hello, hello, welcome to the start of a new week! How was your weekend?

That is to say, we’ll be back, especially because I didn’t try the stuffed grape leaves. WHY DID I TURN DOWN THE STUFFED GRAPE LEAVES?! Probably because I was still full from recipe testing Shrimp and Wild Rice Skillet earlier that afternoon – aka what you need make for dinner TONIGHT! The inspiration for this recipe actually came from another restaurant Ben and I visited over the holidays – Club Car. They’ve been around for over two decades, but I hadn’t been since my sophomore year of high school when my girlfriends and I ate there prior to our school’s Valentine’s Day dance. None of us had dates so we gussied ourselves up, put on matching t- shirts from The Limited Too, then had our parents drop us off at the Club Car for dinner where an hour later we were supposed to be picked up by a limo then driven to the dance in all our girl power glory! Two hours later we started the long walk home with sagging curls and egos because our limo never showed up, then proceeded to eat our feelings by way of banana cream pies and buttered popcorn while watching the Spice Girls Movie on repeat. Good times (and thank God for even better girlfriends!)Anyway, Ben and I recently heard that Club Car is Celiac- friendly and were eager to add another safe restaurant to our short list, so we suggested the whole family go for dinner when his brothers and parents were in town over New Years. I’d peeked at the online menu before we left and knew they had gluten- free pizza, which is what I ordered and inhaled at record speed.

It was just Heavenly, and I was eager to recreate the flavors at home with a healthy boost! I chose a brown rice blend as the base of my Shrimp and Wild Rice Skillet then added nutrient- rich vegetables including baby spinach and chopped tomatoes, big flavors from garlic and bacon, and staying power from sauteed shrimp.
