Temperatures might still be yo-yo-ing, but that doesn’t mean we can’t start grilling, right? Here are the dishes we have bookmarked to cook in April. Come join us in the kitchen!

50 Satisfying Shrimp Recipes to Keep in Your Back Pocket

Our Best Ideas for Shrimp

There’s a good reason shrimp are invited to just about every party: They’re perfect for everything from appetizers to main dishes. While we love to kick off a get-together with shrimp cocktail, this

powerhouse protein is also great paired with pasta for dinner — think lemony, garlic-infused shrimp scampi recipes. They can be seasoned and fried, eaten as delicious shrimp tacos, baked into a creamy casserole, whipped up on a weeknight as shrimp and grits, and more! The next time you don’t know what to make for dinner, reach for shrimp: This rich, lemony shrimp scampi with linguini is easy enough to make on a weekday but impressive enough for special occasions.
