Ground Beef Dirty Rice with Shrimp
I had found a Dirty Brown Rice with Shrimp recipe that I wanted to try but when I went to cook my rice I discovered I didn't have enough brown rice to complete the dish. That's when I spotted the Vigo Saffron Yellow Rice. The original recipe called for onions and bell pepper but when I read the ingredients on the Vigo package I discovered they were already included. As I did what I tell everyone else to do 'Think With Your Taste Buds' I decided my version of the original recipe would work perfectly. Well it was almost perfect. When I tasted my dish I noticed a flavor that was missing. Since it's made with ground beef instead of sausage I knew exactly what that ingredient was - SAGE! After adding that last ingredient I had a really delicious Dirty Rice with Shrimp. One of my food testers was sure I had slipped sausage in instead of ground beef because he could taste the sage. The only thing he suggested was to add more red pepper flakes to heat it up a bit more. For me it was perfect. Find my recipe by going to Martha's Recipe Cabinet.

I'm from Georgia, moved to North Carolina by way of Florida. I've been in Charlotte for 14 years and love it. The recipes in my book Stir, Laugh, Repeat are all tested by "Food Testers" of which I now have 24. They try a dish and rate it from 1-10 with only those scoring at least an 8 making the book. My website is a holding place for my 2nd book Stir, Laugh, Repeat... Again. Please visit my site to find new recipes and tips. All recipes are easy, using common ingredients and according to my testers, great!
When I wrote my introduction about a year ago and a lot has happened since then. I now have 5 blog sites that keep me pretty busy. Two of my sites are dedicated to nothing but recipes. Martha's Recipe Cabinet holds recipes that will be included in one of my upcoming cookbooks. Martha's Kitchen Korner consists of recipes that are good but still need just a bit of work. On A Book and A Dish you will find my book reviews and the author's favorite recipe. Stir, Laugh, Repeat holds reviews written about my cookbook Stir, Laugh, Repeat and the site you are now on is the "mother" site for all of these. Here you will find cooking tips, simple recipes and updates for additions to the "offspring sites." So, enjoy!
