SHRIMP FLORENTINE WITH CARAMELIZED GARLIC
I cut this out of a magazine a LONG time ago and it's one of my husband and I's favorite stand-by dishes! Don't be afraid of the garlic. The roasting mellows it out. I usually add even more than stated and he and I fight over every last one of them.

RAGIN' CAJUN EGGPLANT AND SHRIMP SKILLET
We always have a large summer garden where lots of produce lingers into fall. That's when we harvest our onion, bell pepper, tomatoes and eggplant, the main ingredient of this dish. This recipe turns Cajun with the Holy Trinity (onion, celery and bell pepper), shrimp and red pepper flakes. -Barbara Hahn, Park Hills, Missouri
