Wild Rice and Shrimp

It's back! After a maternity leave I've started Recipe Wednesday again. This is where I'll share some of my favorite recipe's with you. Today, I'm sharing one of my go-to recipes. It's pretty easy to put together (when you use frozen shrimp), makes a ton of food, and tastes great! If you have Cotton Country you can find the recipe in there but for those of you who don't have that cook book here it is.
