  • Made this tonight. eh... it's OK. Need to make some adjustments to the recipe.

    I would add some hot sauce to the egg to add some flavor.

    Grind up the cereal well so that it sticks to the shrimp better.

    Flavor the cereal a little more. Maybe some Old Bay? (I know, sodium!)

    Definitely needs a sauce. Maybe save a fat for some tartar sauce.
