Shrimp and Beet Greens Wraps

Cajun French: la bétrave (la bāt-rav) – beet

 

The beet greens from the Red Stick Farmers Market were beautiful, almost too pretty to cook. Not a chance. This is one of our dishes that evolved and then un-evolved. It was breakfast time and we were cooking eggs, beet greens and shrimp wraps – sounds good and it was. Only problem, we forgot the eggs. Hunger pains took over with the shrimp mixture smelling so good, we totally forgot we were planning to add scrambled eggs. No problem, the wrap was fantastic without eggs. This is a great any meal dish and quite easy.

Flounder Cakes with Citrus Sauce

Cajun French: le limon (lu lee-mon) – lemon

 

What to do with leftover baked flounder? Since it was in pieces and not one attractive piece, we decided to make flounder cakes. Two things we did different, we used no egg or bread instead we used rice, mayonnaise and almond butter. The mayonnaise and almond butter gave the cakes a richness. We had citrus sauce leftover from our catfish, so we top the cakes with the sauce and served the cakes on a bed of mixed wilted greens.
