Forrest Gump stepped out of the pages of Winston Groom€s novel, up onto the silver screen, and into the hearts of more than 30 million Americans. If you€re lucky, you count yourself among them.
Now you can open to any page... and just like Forrest€s mama said about life... €œYou never know what you€re gonna get.€ There are shrimp kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, shrimp cocktail... over 75 recipes all told, and every mouth-watering one of them heaven-sent.
And speaking of heaven, Forrest wanted to remember his mama with these recipes, and his best friend, Bubba, too. And he didn€t want Li€l Forrest to grow up without knowing the Gump family shrimp secrets. These recipes are so downright delicious, you€ll know that €œmiracles do happen every day.€Â
Forrest Gump has never been a man to complicate things... he€s a simple man, but one who €œknows what love is.€ Try some of the shrimp recipes in this book, and you€ll know what he means.
Forrest€s mama loved the South, and its magazine, Southern Living. €œThey just have a way with food,€ she used to say. Try these shrimp fixings, all tested in the Southern Living kitchens, and you€ll say his mama was right every time. Even if the President of the United States knocks on your door, you€ll have the very thing to put on his plate. Tell him Forrest Gump said to say hello... and to remember his own mama.
