Tonight’s dinner was delicious and summery! 
Dinner started with Mal firing-up the grill to cook some shrimp skewers.
Before grilling, I tossed the shrimp in 2 tsp of olive oil and 1 tsp ground ginger for a light, subtle flavor.
While the shrimped cooked on the grill, I cut a mango into small pieces, cooked 1/2 cup of brown rice, and mix it all together with 1/2 cup of black beans.
Approximate measurements:
- 1/2 cup brown rice, uncooked
- 1/2 cup black beans
- 1/2 lb. large/jumbo shrimp
- 1 mango, diced
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp olive oil
Makes about 4 servings
On the side, I added a simple salad with romaine, grape tomatoes, and cucumbers.
Happy Sunday, blog friends! Relaxation time!
