TNT Shrimp, Lemon Mushroom Rice

[Michelemarie]

I made this recipe tonight. It was so good I wanted to share it.

Creamy Lemon, Mushrooms, Shrimp and Rice Dish
2 cups cooked rice (I recommend more)
1 tablespoon garlic flavored olive oil (I used regular)
16 oz. sliced mushrooms (around 6 cups)
1 8 oz. tub onion and chive-flavored cream cheese
1 lb. cooked, peeled and deveined medium shrimp (about 40)
2 cups baby spinach leaves
¼ cup water (or more)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Shred parm cheese (I did not use)

Prepare rice according to directions.
Heat oil in non stick skillet. Add mushrooms and cook six minutes are until golden.
Add cream cheese and stir until melted.
Add shrimp, spinach, and water – cook until heated through, maybe 2 minutes.
Stir in rice and lemon juice and more water if needed to keep it creamy, I didn’t need more.
Top with parm (I did not).

Wow!! Miss Michele!! How'd I miss this one. Think I will do this and add a little shake or two of Cajun/Creole seasoning on it instead of the parmesan!!
Maybe 1 shot of Tabasco?.....
