Looks yummy and so easy! My kids love shrimp and mashed potatoes with gravy, so now we can combine both. I always served shrimp with rice or pasta, never mashed potatoes.


So good. Love your creativeness! a 5 of course.

Made this the other night & it was great! Easy, different, and the kids both loved it - it's another 5-er!


Like the guy on food network(Guy Fieri) says, "this is over the top"! I have shrimp in my freezer and am making this very soon! Sounds great and so tasty. Thanks for the comment on the shrimp stuffed bell peppers. BIG "5"!!!!


I would never have thought of serving shrimp over mashed potatoes, but your picture looks to-die-for! Mmmmm...this would be perfect for dinner tonight (being a Friday during Lent)...if only my husband liked shrimp. Thanks for sharing! - Natalie


I like this one alot Donman!
