Poor man's shrimp scampi ;)


I have seen these Skillet Sauces, but had yet to try them. Out of the different flavors, this one looked the best to me!  I got it on sale and with a coupon, of course! ;)

According to the directions, you are put shrimp in the pan and cook it with the sauce. Well, I didn't have any shrimp, but I had popcorn shrimp.  So, I had an idea!  I will call it poor man's shrimp scampi! LOL!

I made popcorn shrimp in the oven

I made some angel hair pasta and then threw the sauce over the top of that! 

I added the popcorn shrimp on top of that, sprinkled some cheese on it, and voila, dinner! The sauce was good, but was as flavorful as I had wanted it to be!

I decided to make a dessert that I used to make in college for my friends, cinnamon toast pizza. I would make homemade biscuits and take the dough and spread it out like a pizza and then sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar and then bake. 

Well, I didn't feel like make the biscuits from scratch, so I used these.
 
I put all the biscuits together on the pan.

Then I smooshed them all together.

My helper, Shianne, spread butter all over the top of them.

Slathered in butter

Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top and then bake in the oven until golden brown.

They poofed up all pretty! They were so yummy! Delish!
