Wild Rice & Shrimp Casserole

• 1 pkg wild rice mix, prepared
• 1 Tbsp butter
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 1/2 container mushrooms, chopped
• 1 Tbsp franks
• salt to taste
• pepper to taste
• 1 cup fat-free half and half
• 1/2lb shrimp (frozen and cooked or raw - whichever)

1. preheat over to 350, grease baking dish
2. saute onion, green pepper and mushrooms in butter
3. once tender, add everything else and stir
4. transfer to baking dish
5. bake 30-45 minutes

We head to bake ours more like 45 minutes because I over did on my liquid a bit and our shrimp were frozen.  If it's soupy when the timer goes off, try again in another 5-7 minutes.  This didn't look very appetizing but it was delicious...even Bryker gobbled it up - vegetables and all!

Serves 4, 8pp each.

Some thoughts for cutting points down - cut the brown sugar to 1/4 cup.  Use less panko crumbs...mine needed the 2/3 cup, but maybe my pineapple was too juicy.

Meatloaf pictures always look disgusting - but here's a picture of it anyway...it was - DELICIOUS.
