White Wine Cilantro Lime Shrimp

White Wine Cilantro Lime Shrimp

Well we’ve got just over 1 week until back to school! It’s amazing how this time of year comes so quickly. One minute it’s a smoking hot summer, and literally the next there’s that fall feeling in the air. I love fall, but I hate to see summer go because I love the heat, and I love summer parties outdoors with friends!

This past weekend we hosted a wine tasting party, which was a really nice way to celebrate the end of summer. It was an evening of fantastic friends, great wine, and fabulous food!

White Wine Cilantro Lime Shrimp

One of the appetizers I served was this White Wine Cilantro Lime Shrimp. The thing I love about this dish are all the juices that you can sop up with toasted chunks of bread. So, soooooo good!
