Hello...Welcome to my first blog. I can't wait to share my life's successes and failures, a no holds barred truth of the matter, life experiences with you. The "name" was a hard one to come up with till a friend of mine said you can post things from your everyday life. Like my gardening, cooking and crazy life as a band mom ...not to forget the biggest part of my life, my kids and our homeschooling adventures, in-which, Core Curriculum came to mind. Hence Core Cooking and Much More. Hope my blog inspires you in some way. I know others have inspired me and I thank them for it. Who knows, maybe a book might come of this one day.

Shrimp Cocktail Salad





creation again but now they need to be low calorie and low fat, so its all about flavor...I just eyeballed all the ingredients below...so take the measurements with a grain of salt...use your own pallet to taste and tweak it were necessary...

2  pounds or so of little cooked pink fresh water shrimp

1/2 cup ketchup
1 Tbs horseradish
a guzzle or two of Worcestershire
a few squirts of sriracha hot chili sauce
2 cloves garlic chopped finely
squeeze  or two of  fresh lemon juice 

lemon peel of 1 lemon

mix all together and taste...see if it needs a little of this or a little of that...

3 romaine lettuce heads cut in half and rinsed
1 bunch of green onions/scallions chopped
1 bunch of radishes sliced
balsamic vinegar 

when plating I give the lettuce half a rough chop...
serving the shrimp on top of the lettuce topped with the green onions and radishes...a dash of balsamic

1/2 cup shrimp is 1 point plus another for the sauce= 2 points total including the salad and vinegar
